The answer to "How large is one side of the square garden plot in meters?" is as follows: Seeing as area = length X width, we can say that 3 meters X 12 meters = 36 meters. With that statement, it can be assumed that (since the area of the square and rectangle are equal) the area of the square is 36. By merely using simple math one should deduct that 6 is the "square root" of 36. One side of the square garden plot in meters: 6m
