The perimeters of two squares are 80 cm and 64 cm. Find the perimeter of a
third square whose area is equal to the difference of the areas of the two
squares.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
We know perimeter of square = 4(side)
So Side of first square = 80/4 = 20 cm
Side of second square = 64/4 = 16 cm
Area of third Square = 20×20 - 16×16
= 144cm
So side of third square = 12 [because area of square = side*side]
Perimeter = 4*Side = 4*12= 48 cm
GIVEN -
▪︎Perimeter of first square = 80 cm
▪︎Perimeter of first square = 4 × side = 80
= side = 80/4
= side = 20cm
▪︎Perimeter of second square = 64cm
▪︎Perimeter of second square =4 ×side = 64
= side = 64/4
= side = 16cm
SOLUTION -
☆According to the question,
• Difference of the area of the both the squares = area of third square.
Therefore,
▪︎(20)² - (16)² = Area of third square
▪︎400 - 256 = (a)²
▪︎144 = (a)²
▪︎12 = a
Thus,
▪︎Perimeter of third square = 4 × side
▪︎Perimeter of third square = 4 × 12
▪︎Perimeter of third square = 48cm.
