Solved Examples on Square of 389
Problem 1
Find the length of the square, where the area of the square is 151,321 cm².
The area of a square = a² So, the area of a square = 151,321 cm² So, the length = √151,321 = 389. The length of each side = 389 cm
Explanation
The length of a square is 389 cm.
Because the area is 151,321 cm² the length is √151,321 = 389.
Problem 2
Alice is planning to paint her square wall of length 389 feet. The cost to paint a foot is 5 dollars. Then how much will it cost to paint the full wall?
The length of the wall = 389 feet The cost to paint 1 square foot of wall = is 5 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 = 389 Therefore, the area of the wall = 389² = 389 × 389 = 151,321. The cost to paint the wall = 151,321 × 5 = 756,605. The total cost = 756,605 dollars
Explanation
To find the cost to paint the wall, we multiply the area of the wall by cost to paint per foot.
So, the total cost is 756,605 dollars.
Problem 3
Find the area of a circle whose radius is 389 meters.
The area of the circle = 475,291.18 m²
Explanation
The area of a circle = πr²
Here, r = 389
Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 389² = 3.14 × 389 × 389 = 475,291.18 m².
Problem 4
The area of the square is 151,321 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.
The perimeter of the square is 1,556 cm.
Explanation
The area of the square = a²
Here, the area is 151,321 cm²
The length of the side is √151,321 = 389
Perimeter of the square = 4a
Here, a = 389
Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 389 = 1,556.
Problem 5
Find the square of 390.
The square of 390 is 152,100
Explanation
The square of 390 is multiplying 390 by 390.
So, the square = 390 × 390 = 152,100
