whatd will be the area of a square if its side is (a) trebled (b) halve
Answers
Answer:
Answer. If the side is halved the area of the square will be one fourth
Step-by-step explanation:
If the side of a square is tripled then the area would be increased 9 times assuming the goal is to keep the shape a square. Meaning if one side is tripled then all sides are tripled and all corners remain 90 degrees. X being the original length, then 3x is the tripled length
Step-by-step explanation:
heya!!
what happens to the area of a square of its side is
a) halved
Answer -
area = side x side
So, if the side is halved, then -
new area
= side / 2 x side / 2
= side x side / 4
= area / 4
Hence, the area becomes the quarter of what it was before.
b) doubled
Area = side × side ( x × x = x² )
So, if the side is doubled, then -
new area
= 2x × 2x = 4x²
So, doubling the side length multiplies the area by 4.
