Problem 1

Find the length of the square, where the area of the square is 42,436 cm².

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The area of a square = a² So, the area of a square = 42,436 cm² So, the length = √42,436 = 206. The length of each side = 206 cm

Explanation

The length of a square is 206 cm.

Because the area is 42,436 cm², the length is √42,436 = 206.

Problem 2

Sarah wants to carpet her square room of length 206 feet. The cost to carpet a foot is 5 dollars. How much will it cost to carpet the full room?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The length of the room = 206 feet The cost to carpet 1 square foot of the room = 5 dollars. To find the total cost to carpet, we find the area of the room, Area of the room = area of the square = a² Here a = 206 Therefore, the area of the room = 206² = 206 × 206 = 42,436. The cost to carpet the room = 42,436 × 5 = 212,180. The total cost = 212,180 dollars

Explanation

To find the cost to carpet the room, we multiply the area of the room by the cost to carpet per foot.

So, the total cost is 212,180 dollars.

Problem 3

Find the area of a circle whose radius is 206 meters.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The area of the circle = 133,507.76 m²

Explanation

The area of a circle = πr²

Here, r = 206

Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 206² = 3.14 × 206 × 206 = 133,507.76 m².

Problem 4

The area of the square is 42,436 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The perimeter of the square is

Explanation

The area of the square = a²

Here, the area is 42,436 cm²

The length of the side is √42,436 = 206

Perimeter of the square = 4a

Here, a = 206

Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 206 = 824.
