If a certain measurement of a polygon is 283 in2, it means:

A. the polygon's measurements are 283 inches by 283 inches.

B. the polygon's volume is 283 in?

C. 283 one-inch by one-inch squares will fit over its surface.

D. none of the above.

Answer 1

Answer A

In^2 this multiplies the number used by itself therefore in your case 283 x 283. You are using the measurement for inches.

Answer 2

Answer: C

Explanation:

A says the polygon's measurements are 283 inches by 283 inches. Is it Correct? No. If we multiply these numbers we get 80,089 inches squared, which is not equal to our actual surface of 283 inches squared.

B says the polygon's volume is 283 inches cubed, which is not correct because it says that a certain measurement of a polygon is 283 inches squared, not cubed, which means we got a surface/area, not a volume.

C says that our 283 inches squared area could fit 283 one-inch by one-inch squares, which is correct because one-inch by one-inch is an one inch squared area, if we multiply this one-inch squared by the number 283, we get 283 inch squared area.

And D couldn't be because the answer is C.
