The side length of a square is increased by 50%. By what percent is the area increased?

Mathematics

damaskus [11]3 years ago

Answer:

125%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this kind of question, we could choose any arbitrary value for the length of the side of the square.

Let’s say the square is 10m in length, a 50% increase in the length means we add 5 to the original length making the new length to be 15m.

The area of a square is L^2

The former area is 10 * 10 = 100 while the new area is 15 * 15 = 225

The percentage increase is calculated as follows:

We simply subtract the old from the new to yield 225 - 100 = 125

The percentage increase would now be :

125/100 * 100 = 125%

The value of x in the triangle is 9.3

<h3>How to find the side x of a triangle?</h3>

The side x of a triangle can be found as follows:

The triangle ABC is similar to triangle ADE.

Therefore, corresponding sides of similar triangles are in the same ratios.

Hence,

7  / 13 = x / x + 8

cross multiply

7(x + 8) = 13x

7x + 56 = 13x

subtract 7x from both sides of the equation

7x - 7x + 56 = 13x - 7x

56 = 6x

divide both sides by 6

x = 56 / 6

x = 9.33333333333

x = 9.3

Answer:

10048576 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a question, from which we can choose aby of 4 options, this gives ua 4 possible choices for 1.

This will also apply if we have more than 1 question with the same number of options.

This can be called the product rule, as each possibility is the same of each question given :

Therefore, given 10 questions:

. We have

4 * 4 * 4 * 4 * 4 * 4 * 4 * 4 * 4 * 4 = 4^10 = 10048576 ways

Find the area of the regular 20​-gon with radius 77 mm.
butalik [34]
The area of a polygon equals
area = circumradius² * number of sides * sin (360 / # of sides) / 2
area = 77² * 20 * sin (360 / 20) / 2
area = 77² * 20 * sin (18) / 2
area = 118,580 * 0.30902 / 2
area = <span> <span> <span> 36,643.59 </span> </span> </span> / 2
area = 18,321.8 square millimeters
