Answer:

36 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

If BE = 3√2 ft, then the diagonal BD is 6√2 ft. The area of the square (as with any rhombus) is half the product of the diagonals. Since both diagonals are the same length, the area of the square is ...

area = 1/2·(6√2 ft)² = 36 ft²

The area of the square is 36 square feet.

_____

You may be expected to find the length of one side of the square using the Pythagorean theorem.

AB² = AE² + EB² . . . . . = the area of the square

AB² = (3√2 ft)² +(3√2 ft)² = 18 ft² + 18 ft²

AB² = 36 ft² . . . . . . . . . the area of the square

Can you find the perimeter of rectangle if you are given juat the measure of two sides?

Naddika [18.5K]

It depends, if the two sides given are adjacent to each other then yes. but you are given two opposite sides then no, because you don't know the length of one of the sides, thus not being able to calculate the perimeter

Explain how to find the distance between two integers using the difference

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When we want to find the distance between two integers using the difference, the best way is to plot them on number line. And then count distance between them.

For example -3 and -1.

When we want to find difference we have:

-3-(-1)=-2

But distance can not be negative.

Now, we need to count distance between numbers -3 and -1 on the number line.

So we have from -3 to -2, one place and from -2 to -1 one place it is 2 places.

So distance is 2.
