Question

Find the area of the square.
72 yd2
36√2 yd2
36 yd2
72√2 yd2

Answer 1

`Area\ of\ the\ square:A_{\fbox{}}=(d^2)/(2)\\d-a\ diagonal\\\\d=2\cdot6\ yd=12\ yd\\\\\boxed{A_{\fbox{}}=(12^2)/(2)=(144)/(2)=72\ (yd^2)}`

Answer 2

Area of square is:

72 yd²

Explanation:

Are of square=
`(d^2)/(2)`

Where d is the length of the diagonal

Here, d=12

Hence, Area of square=
`(12^2)/(2)`

Area=72

Hence, Area of square is:

72 yd²
