Using a Formula (a²)

In this method, the formula, a² is used to find the square of the number. Where a is the number.

 

Step 1: Understanding the equation Square of a number = a² a² = a × a

 

Step 2: Identifying the number and substituting the value in the equation.

 

Here, ‘a’ is 247.

 

So: 247² = 247 × 247 = 61009

Problem 1

Find the length of the square, where the area of the square is 61009 cm².

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

The area of a square = a² So, the area of a square = 61009 cm² So, the length = √61009 = 247. The length of each side = 247 cm

Explanation

The length of a square is 247 cm.

Because the area is 61009 cm², the length is √61009 = 247.

Problem 2

Mary is planning to plant a garden in a square plot of length 247 feet. The cost to plant a foot is 5 dollars. Then how much will it cost to plant the full plot?

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

The length of the plot = 247 feet The cost to plant 1 square foot of the plot = 5 dollars. To find the total cost to plant, we find the area of the plot, Area of the plot = area of the square = a² Here a = 247 Therefore, the area of the plot = 247² = 247 × 247 = 61009. The cost to plant the plot = 61009 × 5 = 305045. The total cost = 305045 dollars

Explanation

To find the cost to plant the plot, we multiply the area of the plot by the cost to plant per foot.

So, the total cost is 305045 dollars.

Problem 3

Find the area of a circle whose radius is 247 meters.

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

The area of the circle = 191547.63 m²

Explanation

The area of a circle = πr²

Here, r = 247

Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 247² = 3.14 × 247 × 247 = 191547.63 m².

Problem 4

The area of the square is 61009 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.

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

The perimeter of the square is 988 cm

Explanation

The area of the square = a²

Here, the area is 61009 cm²

The length of the side is √61009 = 247

Perimeter of the square = 4a

Here, a = 247

Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 247 = 988.
