Answer:
The length of the sides of the square is 9.0015
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The diagonal of a square = 12.73
Required
The length of its side
Let the length and the diagonal of the square be represented by L and D, respectively.
So that
D = 12.73
The relationship between the diagonal and the length of a square is given by the Pythagoras theorem as follows:

Solving further, we have

Divide both sides by 2


Take Square root of both sides


Reorder

Now, the value of L can be calculated by substituting 12.73 for D




(Approximated)
Hence, the length of the sides of the square is approximately 9.0015
Explanation:
This can be explained by thinking numbers on the number line as:
Lets take we have to multiply a positive number (say, 2) with a negative number say (-3)
<u>2×(-3)</u>
Suppose someone is standing at 0 on the number line and to go to cover -3 , the person moves 3 units in the left hand side. Since, we have to compute for 2×(-3), The person has to cover the same distance twice. At last, he will be standing at -6, which is a negative number.
A image is shown below to represent the same.
<u>Thus, a positive times a negative is a negative number.</u>
First, let's find all the factors of 81:
81/3=27
27/3=9
9/3=3
3/1=1
So the factors of 81 are 3,3,3,3, (the numbers by which we divided here).
This means we can write down 81 as 3*3*3*3 or

- which is the answer to the question! (three to the power of 4)
