For each of these find the area of the shaded square
Answers
Answer:
the answer for the given question is 100cm^2
explanation according to phytogoreas theorem (base)^2+(height)^2=
(hypotenuse)^2
so according to the question 36cm^2+64cm^2=(hypotenuse)^2
So 36+64=100cm^2
So the answer for the given question is 100sq.cm
here it is given the area of two squares.
so the first one area is 36 cm square.
the second one area is 64 cm square.
we know area of square is = side X side
so for first square.
let's take its side length is a.
so aXa = 36
so, a^2=36
a=√36
a= 6 cm
let's take the side of 2ne square is b.
so b^2=64
b=√64
b =8cm.
they togetherly forms a right angle triangle .
by phythagorous theorem
slope = root of 6^2+8^2
= root of 36+64
= √100 = 10cm
so the slope is equals with the side of the third square.
so, the side of the third square is 10 cm. this is the shaded part
so the area is 10X10 cm square
= 100 cm square.
