The area doesn't tell you the perimeter or the dimensions.
It doesn't even tell you the shape.
32 square meters could be the area of a circle with a diameter of 6.383 meters,
a square with sides of 5.657 meters, or an infinite number of different rectangles
including those that measure 1 by 32, 2 by 16, 3 by 102/3, 4 by 8, and 5 by 6.4 .
All of these possibilities, as well as an infinite number more, have areas of 32 but
different perimeters.

Yes The first has 2 sides of 4 and two of 12 -- so the perimeter is 32 meters with an area of 48 Sq meters. The second has two sides of 3 and two of 13 ----- so the perimeter is 32 meters with an area of 39 Sq meters. (the areas a different).
The perimeter of a square is 4 times the length of a side. So, 32 = 4*L => L = 8 metres. The area of the square is 8m*8m or 64 sq metres.
If the perimeter is 32 sq cm, there is a very serious problem since the perimeter is a linear measure, not an area! Leaving that aside, the length of the rectangle is 10 cm and the breadth is 6 cm.
If the perimeter is 32, then each side is 32/4=8 meters. So the area is 8 x 8 = 64 square meters.
12.25 sq metres.
