1.	A square yard has area 1764m2. From a corner of this yard, another square part of area 784 m2 is taken out for public utility. The remaining portion is divided into equal square parts. What is the perimeter of each of these equal parts?
Answer» The area of the remaining portion = 1764 – 784 = 980 m² It is divided into 5, equal square parts ∴ Each square part = \(\frac{980}{5}\) = 196 m² Area of each square part = 196 m² (side)² = 196 side = √196 side = 14. The length of each side of the square = 14m Perimeter = 4 side = 4 × 14 = 56m

A square yard has area 1764m2. From a corner of this yard, another square part of area 784 m2 is taken out for public utility. The remaining portion is divided into equal square parts. What is the perimeter of each of these equal parts?

Answer»

The area of the remaining portion = 1764 – 784 = 980 m²

It is divided into 5, equal square parts

∴ Each square part = \(\frac{980}{5}\) = 196 m²

Area of each square part = 196 m²

(side)² = 196

side = √196

side = 14.

The length of each side of the square = 14m

Perimeter = 4 side = 4 × 14 = 56m
