Answer:
Length of a side of a square = 2√2 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of a square is 'x' units.
Therefore, Area of the square A = (Side)²
= x² square units
And by Pythagoras theorem,
(Diagonal)²= (Side 1)² + (Side 2)²
= x² + x²
= 2x²
Diagonal 'p' = x√2 units
It is given in the question that area of the square is increasing four times as fast as the diagonals.
-------(1)
Similarly,
Now by placing the value of and
in equation (1),
Since,
x = 2√2
Therefore, length of a side of the square is 2√2.
