Question

Q-3 The sides of two squares are in ratio 5:7. Find the ratio of their areas. * 2 points 25:49 49:25 10:14

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides of two squares be 5x and 7x.

The ratio of their areas

$= \frac{( {side)}^{2} }{( {side)}^{2} } = \frac{( {5x)}^{2} }{( {7x)}^{2} } = \frac{25 {x}^{2} }{49 {x}^{2} } = \frac{25}{49}$

The ratio of their areas is 25 : 49.
