the sides of the two squares.
Answers
Solution :
Sum of areas of two squares is 468 m². If the difference of their perimeter is 24 m.
The sides of the two square.
Let the side of two square be r m and m m respectively.
A/q
As we can compared the given equation with ax² + bx + c = 0
- a = 1
- b = 6
- c = -216
So;
We know that negative value isn't acceptable.
Putting the value of m = 12 in equation (1),we get;
Thus;

Sum of areas of two squares is 468 m2. If, the difference of their perimeters is 24 metres, findthe sides of the two squares.
SOLUTION :
Let the sides of the squares be A and B
Area 1 = A^2
Area 2 = B^2
Perimeter 1 = 4 A
Perimeter 2 = 4 B
4 ( A - B ) = 24
=> A - B = 6.........(1)
=> A = B + 6
( B + 6 ) ^2 + B^2 = 462
=> 2 B^2 + 12 B + 36 = 462
=> 2B^2 + 12 B - 432 = 0
=> B^2 + 6 B - 216 = 0
=> B^2 + 18 B - 12 B - 216 = 0
=> B ( B + 18 ) - 12 ( B + 18 ) = 0
=> ( B - 12 ) ( B + 18 ) = 0
=> B is 12 m.
A = B + 6
=> A = 16 m.
Hence the sides of the squares are 12 m and 16 m respectively.
