Question

A square is cut diagonally into two equal parts. If each part has an area of 50cm^2, then what is the perimeter of each part?

50 points the answer isnt 30 so dont say it is because it isnt

Answer 1

40 units

Explanation:

1) Find the side length of the square

Let the side be "s".

`\rightarrow (1)/(2) * s * s = 50 \ \text{cm}^(2)`

`\rightarrow s * s = 50 * 2`

`\rightarrow s * s = 100`

`\rightarrow √(s * s) = √(100)`

`\rightarrow s = \±10`

`\rightarrow s = 10 \ \text{units}` (Side lengths can never be negative)

2) Find the perimeter of the square

`\text{Perimeter of square = 4(s) = 4(10) = 40 units}`

Answer 2

its 25.

Step-by-step explanation:because 50 divided by 2 is 25.
