    Length l = 8 m

    The length of one side of the square is 8 m

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The area of a rectangle is;

    Area = length * breadth

    Given;

    Length = 32 m

    Breadth = 2 m

    Area of the rectangle can be expressed as;

    A = 32 * 2 = 64 m^2

    Area of a square is;

    Area = length * length = l^2

    Since the area of the square is equal to the area of the rectangle, then the area of the square is 64 m^2

    A = l^2

    64 = l^2

    l = √64

    l = 8 m

    The length of one side of the square is 8 m
