Question

What is the ratio of the area of the inner square to the area of the outer square?

Answer 1

The area of ​​the inner square to the area of ​​the outer square ratio is:  $\frac{(a-b)^2+b^2}{a^2}$

Given a figure in which an inner square is inscribed inside the outer square.

The area of ​​a square is the product of the two sides of the square. Also known as side square.

Firstly, we will find the side of the inner square by finding the distance between the points (0,b) and (a-b,0)

S₁=√(a-b-0)²+(b-0)²

S₁=√(a-b)²+b²

Now, we will find the area of the inner square, we get

The area of the inner square=(side)²

A₁=(S₁)²

A₁=(√(a-b)²+b²)²

A₁=(a-b)²+b²square cm.

Further, we will find the side of the outer square by finding the distance between the points (0,0) and (a,0).

S₂=√(a-0)²+0²

S₂=√a²

S₂=a

Furthermore, we will find the area of the outer square, we get

The area of the outer square=(side)²

A₂=(S₂)²

A₂=a² square cm.

Hence, the area of the inner square to the area of the outer square ratio is $\frac{(a-b)^2+b^2}{a^2}$.
