Question

in a figure ABCD is a square of side√50 units and side BE is 1 unit find area of square EFGH​

Answer 1

Answer:

36

BE= 1 unit

1. AB=BC=CD=AD= root 50 unit

hence By Pythagoras theorem

In triangle BEC,

BCsquare= BEsquare + CEsquare

50= 1 + CEsquare. ........(BE=1 unit)

so,

CE= root49 =7 units

therefore,

EF=FG=GH=HE.....(.: EFGH is a square)

CE=CF+FE

.:CF=BF=1 unit

EF=CE-CF

=CE-BE

.:EF=7-1= 6

.: Area of square (EF) square = 36
