<span>The first part is already in squared terms. "19.25 sq ft"
Taking the measurements for the mirror 3ft and 5ft, you'd get: "15 sq ft."
Subtract that answer from the previous number to get "4.25 sq ft.
the opposite number is going to be negative because if x is to the right of the number line then the opposite will be of the left of 0 making the opposite number negative.
