The best way to do this is to make up values for the sides.

Say the lengths of square B's sides are each 4 cm. That means A's sides are 2 cm.

So, the area of square B is 4^2 = 16 cm^2, and A's area is 4 cm^2. We can see the shaded area is half of A, so it's 2 cm^2.

What percent of 16 is 2?

2 / 16 * 100 = 12.5%

The figure is made from squares of different sizes.Find the area of A if the side of each of the two indentical smallest square

Temka [501]

Answer:

The area of square A is 256 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The four sides of a square are equal in length</em>
<em>Area of a square = side × side</em>

In the given figure

∵ The sides of the square E = 2 cm each

∵ The sides of the square F = 2 cm each

∵ The side of square D is the sum of the sides of squares E and F

∴ The sides of the square D = 2 + 2 = 4 cm each

∵ The side of square C is the sum of the sides of squares E and D

∴ The sides of square C = 2 + 4 = 6 cm each

∵ The side of square B is the sum of the sides of squares C, E, and F

∴ The sides of square B = 6 + 2 + 2= 10 cm each

∵ The side of square A is the sum of the sides of squares B, F, and D

∴ The sides of square A = 10 + 2 + 4= 16 cm each

∵ Area of square A = side × side

∴ Area of square A = 16 × 16

∴ Area of square A = 256 cm²

∴ The area of square A is 256 cm²

A 12- foot ladder is resting against a wall. The base of the ladder is 2.5 feet from the base of the wall. How high up the wall

maks197457 [2]

The right triangle has legs of x and 2.5 where x is the height up the wall that the ladder will reach. The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

According to the Pythagorean Theorem, x^2 + 2.5^2 = 12^2
x = 11.736 approx To the nearest tenth that is 11.7.
