No, the sum of the areas of two smaller squares is not equal to the

area of a large square

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem let us do these steps

1. Find the area of the larger square

2. Find the area of the two smaller squares

3. Add the areas of the two smaller squares

4. Compare between the sum of the areas of the 2 smaller squares

   and the area of the larger square

The area of a square is s²

The length of the side of the larger square is 8 feet

∵ s = 8 feet

∴ Area of the larger square = (8)² = 64 feet²

The lengths of the sides of the smaller squares are 5 feet and 3 feet

∵ s = 5 feet

∴ The area of one of the smaller square = (5)² = 25 feet²

∵ s = 3 feet

∴ The area of the other smaller square = (3)² = 9 feet²

The sum of the areas of the two smaller squares = 25 + 9 = 34 feet²

∵ The area of the larger square is 64 feet²

∵ The sum of the areas of the two smaller squares is 34 feet²

∵ 64 ≠ 34

∴ The sum of the areas of two smaller squares is not equal to the

   area of a large square

<em>No, the sum of the areas of two smaller squares is not equal to the</em>

<em>area of a large square</em>

At a party, everyone shook hands with everybody else. There were 66 handshakes. How many people were at the party?
velikii [3]
This is a question that needs a bit of common sense to get to the actual answer that is desired. Firstly there is one information given .The other information has to be found from common sense. ! single handshake requires 2 people. Now we can easily determine the number of people doing 66 handshakes.
Then
The number of people required for 1 hand shake = 2
Then
The number of people required to do 66 handshakes = ( 2 * 66) people
                                                                                     = 132 people
Then it can be said that there were 132 people in the party. I hope the process of doing this problem is clear to you.
