Chapter 11, Problem 10CR

To determine

To Find: The area of square.

Answer to Problem 10CR

  $36m^2$

Explanation of Solution

Given: $apothem(a)=3m$

Given: $apothem(a)=3m$

We know that

  $\begin{array}{l}apothem(a)=\frac{1}{2}s\\ 3=\frac{1}{2}s\\ s=6m\end{array}$

Area of square.

  $\begin{array}{l}A=s^2\\ $ A={(6)}^2$A=36m^2\end{array}$
