Answer to Problem 41PPE
21%
Explanation of Solution
Given :
The sides of a square that measures 4 m by 4 m increased in length by 10%.
Calculation:
Area formula :
Side = s = 4 m
Measured area of square =
The side is increased by 10% , so increased height =
New area of square =
So, percent increase =

Answer to Problem 41PPE
21%
Explanation of Solution
Given :
The sides of a square that measures 6 m by 6 m increased in length by 10%.
Calculation:
Area formula :
Side = s = 6 m
Measured area of square =
The side is increased by 10% , so increased height =
New area of square =
So, percent increase =
(c)
Predict the percent of increase in the area.

Answer to Problem 41PPE
21%
Explanation of Solution
Given :
The sides of a square that measures 8 m by 8 m increased in length by 10%.
Calculation:
Let the original length be 100
So, area =
It is increased by 10% , so new length is =
So, new area =
So, percent increase =
We calculate in this way, since it makes the calculation easy.
