Example Question #151 : Plane Geometry
Find the area of a square with a width of 13in.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
where l is the length and w is the width of the square.
Now, we know the width of the square is 13in. Because it is a square, we know all sides are equal. Therefore, the length is also 13in.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #151 : Plane Geometry
Find the area of a square with a base of 17cm.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
Now, we know the length of the square is 17cm. Because it is a square, all sides are equal. Therefore, the width is also 17cm.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #52 : Squares
Find the area of a square with a base of 19cm.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
where l is the length and w is the width of the square.
Now, we know the base (or length) of the square is 19cm. Because it is a square, all sides are equal. Therefore, the width is also 19cm.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #53 : Squares
Use the following square to answer the question:
Find the area.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
where l is the length and w is the width of the square.
Now, given the square
we can see the length is 14cm. Because it is a square, all sides are equal. Therefore, the width is also 14cm. Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #54 : Squares
The area of a square is . Find the length of one side of the square.
To find the area of a square, we use the following formula:
where x is the length of one side.
Now, we want to find the length of one side, so we will solve for x. We know the area of the square is . So, we will substitute.
Therefore, the length of one side of the square is 11in.
Example Question #151 : Geometry
Find the area of a square with a length of 12in.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
where l is the length and w is the width of the square.
Now, we know the length of the square is 12in. Because it is a square, all sides are equal. Therefore, the width is also 12in. So, we can substitute.
Example Question #152 : Plane Geometry
Find the area of a square with a width of 5in.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
where l is the length and w is the width of the square.
Now, we know the width of the square is 5in. Because it is a square, all sides are equal. Therefore, the length is also 5in. So, we can substitute. We get
Example Question #153 : Plane Geometry
Find the area of a square with a length of 9in.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
where l is the length and w is the width of the square.
Now, we know the length of the square is 9in. Because it is a square, all sides are equal. Therefore, the width is also 9in. So, we get
Example Question #61 : Quadrilaterals
