Let, the side of square be x cm.
Now,
Area of square = ( Side )²
Area = ( x )² = x² cm²
After doubling the side,
New side = 2x cm
New Area = ( New side )²
New Area = ( 2x )² = 4x² cm²
New Area = 4 ( x² cm² )
New Area = 4 ( Original area )
Hence, New area becomes 4 times the original area when side is doubled.
Now,
Area of square = ( Side )²
Area = ( x )² = x² cm²
After doubling the side,
New side = 2x cm
New Area = ( New side )²
New Area = ( 2x )² = 4x² cm²
New Area = 4 ( x² cm² )
New Area = 4 ( Original area )
Hence, New area becomes 4 times the original area when side is doubled.
