let the side of the square be x meterslength of two sides = 2x metersdiagonal = 2 x = 1.414x m saving on 2x meters = .59x m saving % = 0 . 59 x 2 x * 100 % = 30% (approx)
According to the question, Area of semi- circle = 77 m(1/2) x ? x r2 = 77? r2 = (77 x 2 x 7)/22? r = 7m ?Circumference of semi- circle =?r + 2r= ( ? + 2)r = [(22/7) + 2] x 7 = 36 m
Let each side of the square be a. Then, area = . a 2 New side = 125 a 100 = 5 a 4 . New area = 5 a 4 2 = 25 a 2 16 Increase in area = 25 a 2 16 - a 2 = 9 a 2 16 Increase% = 9 a 2 16 * 1 a 2 * 100 % = 56.25%.
