Example Questions

Example Question #703 : Plane Geometry

In square units, find the area of a square with side lengths 0.7 units.

Possible Answers:

0.21

0.49

1.4

0.14

Correct answer:

0.49

Explanation:

Use the following formula to find the area of a square:

$\text{Area}=(\text{side length})^2$

For the given square,

$\text{Area}=0.7^2=0.49$

When multiplying decimals together first move the decimal over so that the number is a whole integer.

$0.7\rightarrow 7$

Now we multiple the integers together.

$0.7\cdot 0.7\rightarrow 7\cdot 7=49$

From here, we need to move the decimal place back. In this particular problem we moved the decimal over one time for each number for a total of two decimal places.

Therefore our answer becomes,

$49\rightarrow 0.49$

Example Question #301 : Quadrilaterals

In square units, find the area of the square with side lengths of 0.8 .

Possible Answers:

1.6

0.16

0.72

0.64

Correct answer:

0.64

Explanation:

Use the following formula to find the area of a square:

$\text{Area}=(\text{side length})^2$

For the given square,

$\text{Area}=0.8^2=0.64$

When multiplying decimals together first move the decimal over so that the number is a whole integer.

$0.8\rightarrow 8$

Now we multiple the integers together.

$0.8\cdot 0.8\rightarrow 8\cdot 8=64$

From here, we need to move the decimal place back. In this particular problem we moved the decimal over one time for each number for a total of two decimal places.

Therefore our answer becomes,

$64\rightarrow 0.64$

Example Question #302 : Quadrilaterals

If the perimeter of a square is 160 , find the area of the square.

Possible Answers:

3200

6400

2400

1600

Correct answer:

1600

Explanation:

First, recall how to find the perimeter of a square.

$\text{Perimeter}=4\times\text{side length}$

From this equation, we can solve for the side length of a square.

$\text{Side length}=\frac{\text{Perimeter}}{4}$

For the given square,

$\text{Side length}=\frac{160}{4}=40$

Now, recall how to find the area of a square.

$\text{Area}=\text{side length}^2$

For the square in question, we can plug in the side length we found from the perimeter to find the area.

$\text{Area}=40^2=1600$

$\text{Side length}=\frac{\text{Perimeter}}{4}$

For the given square,

$\text{Side length}=\frac{52}{4}=13$

Now, recall how to find the area of a square.

$\text{Area}=\text{side length}^2$

For the square in question, we can plug in the side length we found from the perimeter to find the area.

$\text{Area}=13^2=169$
