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 241

 

So: 241² = 241 × 241 = 58,081

Problem 1

Find the length of the square, where the area of the square is 58,081 cm².

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

The area of a square = a² So, the area of a square = 58,081 cm² So, the length = √58,081 = 241. The length of each side = 241 cm

Explanation

The length of a square is 241 cm.

Because the area is 58,081 cm², the length is √58,081 = 241.

Problem 2

Sarah is planning to tile her square garden with sides of length 241 feet. The cost to tile a foot is 5 dollars. Then how much will it cost to tile the full garden?

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

The length of the garden = 241 feet The cost to tile 1 square foot of garden = 5 dollars. To find the total cost to tile, we find the area of the garden, Area of the garden = area of the square = a² Here a = 241 Therefore, the area of the garden = 241² = 241 × 241 = 58,081. The cost to tile the garden = 58,081 × 5 = 290,405. The total cost = 290,405 dollars

Explanation

To find the cost to tile the garden, we multiply the area of the garden by the cost to tile per foot.

So, the total cost is 290,405 dollars.

Problem 3

Find the area of a circle whose radius is 241 meters.

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

The area of the circle = 182,466.29 m²

Explanation

The area of a circle = πr²

Here, r = 241

Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 241² = 3.14 × 241 × 241 = 182,466.29 m².

Problem 4

The area of the square is 58,081 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.

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

The perimeter of the square is 964 cm.

Explanation

The area of the square = a²

Here, the area is 58,081 cm²

The length of the side is √58,081 = 241

Perimeter of the square = 4a

Here, a = 241

Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 241 = 964.
