Answer 2

Answer:

Thanks for your question...

Your required answer :

• Let the side of square is 4cm.

• Area of square - Side²

Then , area of square = 4 × 4

= 16 cm²

Now , its side will be halved:

Then the new side = 4/2 = 2 cm²

Now area of square = 2 × 2

= 4 cm²

Therefore , when the side of square is halved then its area decrease 4 times as compared to its first length side...
