Problem 1

Find the length of the square, where the area of the square is 290,521 cm².

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

The area of a square = a²

So, the area of a square = 290,521 cm²

So, the length = √290,521 = 539.

The length of each side = 539 cm

Explanation

The length of a square is 539 cm.

Because the area is 290,521 cm², the length is √290,521 = 539.

Problem 2

Alex is planning to paint his square ceiling of length 539 feet. The cost to paint a foot is 5 dollars. Then how much will it cost to paint the full ceiling?

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

The length of the ceiling = 539 feet

The cost to paint 1 square foot of ceiling = 5 dollars.

To find the total cost to paint, we find the area of the ceiling, Area of the ceiling = area of the square = a²

Here a = 539 Therefore, the area of the ceiling = 539² = 539 × 539 = 290,521.

The cost to paint the ceiling = 290,521 × 5 = 1,452,605.

The total cost = 1,452,605 dollars

Explanation

To find the cost to paint the ceiling, we multiply the area of the ceiling by the cost to paint per foot.

So, the total cost is 1,452,605 dollars.

Problem 3

Find the area of a circle whose radius is 539 meters.

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

The area of the circle = 912,718.11 m²

Explanation

The area of a circle = πr²

Here, r = 539

Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 539² = 3.14 × 539 × 539 = 912,718.11 m².

Problem 4

The area of the square is 290,521 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 290,521 cm²

The length of the side is √290,521 = 539

Perimeter of the square = 4a

Here, a = 539

Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 539 = 2,156.
