Question

The area of a square plot is$101\frac{1}{400}{m}^2$. Find the length of one side of the plot.

Answer 1

Finding the side of the square plot :

Given

From the given details we note that

Area of a square plot $=101\frac{1}{400}{m}^2=\frac{40401}{400}{m}^2$

We know that,

area of square $={\left(side\right)}^2$

$\frac{40401}{400}={\left(side\right)}^2$

By taking square root on both side,

$\begin{array}{rcl}Side& =& \sqrt{\frac{40401}{400}}\\ & =& \sqrt{\frac{201\times 201}{20\times 20}}\\ & =& \frac{201}{20}\\ & =& 10\frac{1}{20}m\end{array}$

Hence, the length of one side of the plot is $10\frac{1}{20}m$
