the parimetre of a square is 28 cm find the area and length of diagnal
Answers
- the Perimetre of a square is 28 cm
- Area of Square
- Length of the diagonal
Let the side of the square be x cm
We can find the length of the side of Square using the formula for perimeter of a square.
Plug in the values,
=>
=>
=> =
=> =
=>
Side of the square = x = 7 cm
Now as we have calculated the side of the square, it becomes pretty simple to find the area and length of the diagonal using the formulae.
We know that the area of square is calculated using the formula,
Plug in the values,
=>
=>
=> Area = 49 sq.cm
Now using the formula,
Plug in the values,
=> 49 = ½ × diagonal²
=> 49 =
Cross multiplying,
=> 49 × 2 = diagonal²
=> 98 = diagonal²
=> = diagonal
=> 9.8 = diagonal (approx.)
Given :-
Perimeter of square is 28 cm.
To Find :-
Area of square
Length of Diagonal
Solution :-
Let the side of the square be a.
______________[Put Values]
28 =.4 × side
28 = 4 × a
28/4 = a
7 = a
Side of the square = a = 7cm
Using Formula
___________[Put values]
Area = (7)²
Area=7 × 7
Area = 49 cm²
Using Formula
_____________[Put values]
49 = 1/2 × diagonal²
49 × 2 = diagonal²
98 = diagonal²
√98 = diagonal
Put value of √98 as 9.8
9.8 = diagonal (approx)
