Problem 1

Find the side length of a square, where the area of the square is 3249 cm².

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

The area of a square = a²

So, the area of a square = 3249 cm²

So, the side length = √3249 = 57.

The side length of each side = 57 cm

Explanation

The side length of a square is 57 cm because the area is 3249 cm²; the length is √3249 = 57.

Problem 2

Sarah wants to fence her square garden of side length 57 meters. The cost of fencing per meter is 5 dollars. What will be the total cost to fence the entire garden?

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

The side length of the garden = 57 meters

The cost to fence 1 meter of garden = 5 dollars.

To find the total cost to fence, we find the perimeter of the garden,

Perimeter of the garden = perimeter of the square = 4a

Here a = 57

Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 57 = 228.

The cost to fence the garden = 228 × 5 = 1140.

The total cost = 1140 dollars

Explanation

To find the cost to fence the garden, we multiply the perimeter of the garden by the cost to fence per meter.

So, the total cost is 1140 dollars.

Problem 3

A circular track has a diameter of 57 meters. Find the area of the track.

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

The area of the track = 2,550.57 m²

Explanation

The area of a circle = πr²

The radius r = diameter/2 = 57/2 = 28.5

Therefore, the area of the track = π × (28.5)² = 3.14 × 28.5 × 28.5 = 2,550.57 m²

Problem 4

The area of a square is 3249 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.

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

The perimeter of the square is 228 cm.

Explanation

The area of the square = a²

Here, the area is 3249 cm²

The length of the side is √3249 = 57

Perimeter of the square = 4a

Here, a = 57

Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 57 = 228.
