Question

What happens to the area of a square when
() its side is doubled?
(10) its s​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

It is going to be 4 times the previous.

If the square side is x

Then it's area will be x^2

If the square's side is 2x

Then it's area will be 4x^2

or the area will become 4 time the previous ones

Answer 2

Answer:

The area becomes 4 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that, the original length of side is x.

Therefore, the area is $x^2$

Now, the length gets doubled, that is 2x.

New Area is $(2x)^2$ $=4x^2$

$\frac{New Area}{Original Area} = \frac{4x^2}{x^2} = 4$

Therefore, the area becomes 4 times.
