If a square is cut along its diagonal into four triangles and these are arranged on another square of same area to form a larger square, then the area of the larger square is double the area of the original square.

Given that the area of the larger square formed by joining the 2 squares is 100 sq.units

So the area of the original square is 50 sq.units.
