Solved Examples on Square of 244
Problem 1
Find the length of the square, where the area of the square is 59,536 cm².
The area of a square = a² So, the area of a square = 59,536 cm² So, the length = √59,536 = 244. The length of each side = 244 cm
Explanation
The length of a square is 244 cm.
Because the area is 59,536 cm², the length is √59,536 = 244.
Problem 2
Tom is planning to paint his square wall of length 244 feet. The cost to paint a foot is 3 dollars. Then how much will it cost to paint the full wall?
The length of the wall = 244 feet The cost to paint 1 square foot of wall = 3 dollars. To find the total cost to paint, we find the area of the wall, Area of the wall = area of the square = a² Here a = 244 Therefore, the area of the wall = 244² = 244 × 244 = 59,536. The cost to paint the wall = 59,536 × 3 = 178,608. The total cost = 178,608 dollars
Explanation
To find the cost to paint the wall, we multiply the area of the wall by the cost to paint per foot.
So, the total cost is 178,608 dollars.
Problem 3
Find the area of a circle whose radius is 244 meters.
The area of the circle = 187,008.64 m²
Explanation
The area of a circle = πr²
Here, r = 244
Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 244² = 3.14 × 244 × 244 = 187,008.64 m².
Problem 4
The area of the square is 59,536 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.
The perimeter of the square is 976 cm
Explanation
The area of the square = a²
Here, the area is 59,536 cm²
The length of the side is √59,536 = 244
Perimeter of the square = 4a
Here, a = 244
Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 244 = 976 cm.
Problem 5
Find the square of 245.
The square of 245 is 60,025
Explanation
The square of 245 is multiplying 245 by 245.
So, the square = 245 × 245 = 60,025
