Step-by-step explanation:

For the equation $x^{2} - x - 6$ , factoring gives us the following:

$(x - 3)(x + 2)$

For the equation $x^{2} - 5x + 6$ , factoring gives us the following:

$(x - 3)(x - 2)$

From this, we see that the common factor is $(x - 3)$

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

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, By the given diagram,

The side of the inner square = Distance between the points (0,b) and (a-b,0)

$=\sqrt{(a-b-0)^2+(0-b)^2}$

$=\sqrt{(a-b)^2+b^2}$

Thus the area of the inner square = (side)²

$=(\sqrt{(a-b)^2+b^2})^2$

$=(a-b)^2+b^2\text{ square cm}$

Now, the side of the outer square = Distance between the points (0,0) and (a,0),

$=\sqrt{(a-0)^2+0^2}$

$=\sqrt{a^2}=a$

Thus, the area of the outer square = (side)²

$=a^2\text{ square cm}$

Hence, the ratio of the area of the inner square to the area of the outer square

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