Answer: The area of the square is 64 square inches and the area of the new rectangle is 60 square inches. The square's area is 4 inches larger than the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation: If a side length of the square measures 8 inches, then its area can be calculated as follows;

Area = L x W

The length and the width both measure 8 inches (all sides of a square are equal in length).

Area = 8 x 8

Area = 64

Also, the the new rectangle is formed by increasing the width of the square by 2 inches (that is 8 + 2 = 10), and decreasing the length by 2 inches (that is 8 - 2 = 6). The area of the new rectangle is calculated as follows;

Area = L x W

Area = 10 x 6

Area = 60

Therefore the area of the square is 64 square inches and the area of the rectangle is 60 square inches. The area of the square is 4 inches larger than that of the rectangle.

Percentage calculation =(given value/total value)*100

let the actual value is "x"

percentage we known is 59 1/5% (59.2%) and 59.2% of x is 148.5.

for the percentage,

x*59.2% =148.5

x*59.2/100=148.5

x=(148.5/59.2)*100

x=(2.5084)*100

x=250.84

The actual value is 250.84 .

Use the information in the diagram to determine the height of the tree. The diagram is not a scale
dusya [7]
In the given diagram, we can note that the tree divides the hypotenuse of the triangle as well as the side where the tree is based into halves.

In a triangle, when a line is drawn joining between the midpoints of two sides, this line is always parallel to the third side and equals half its length.

Applying this concept to the given diagram here, we will find that the tree is joining the midpoints of two sides of the triangle. this means that the tree is parallel to the building and the height of the tree is half the height of the building.

Therefore:
height of tree = 0.5 * 120 = 60 ft
