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

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rama09 [41]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

\frac{(a-b)^2+b^2}{a^{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

The area of the square is

A=x^{2}

where

x is the length side of the square

step 1

Find the area of the outer square (A_o)

we have that

x=a\ units

substitute in the formula

A_o=a^{2}\ units^2

step 2

Find the area of the inner square (A_i)

we know that

The length side of the inner square is equal to the hypotenuse of a right triangle

so

Applying Pythagoras theorem

x^{2}=(a-b)^2+b^2

Remember that

A_i=x^2

so

A_i=(a-b)^2+b^2

step 3

Find the ratio of the area of the inner square to the area of the outer

ratio=\frac{A_i}{A_o}

substitute the values

ratio=\frac{(a-b)^2+b^2}{a^{2}}

The answer is A because you would do 79 x 0.05 which equals 3.95 . So you subtract 3.95 from 79 which is 75.05 minus 50 equal to 25.05

Solve 5r2 – 12 = 68. {±4} {±5} {±3} {±6}
sashaice [31]

Hey there!

Assuming you meant

5r^2 - 12 = 68

If so, follow these steps so it can be a little bit easier to solve

Firstly, we have to add by 12 on each of your sides

5r^2 -12 +12 \\ \\ 68 + 12

5r^2 = 5r^2 \\ \\ 68 + 12 = 80

We get: 5r^2 =80

Now, we have divide by 5 on each of your sides

\frac{5r^2}{5} = \frac{80}{5}

\frac{80}{5}  = 16

We get: r^2 = 16

r = ± \sqrt{16}

Therefore , your answer is:r = ±4

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
