On a square paper of length 2.524375cm is inscribed square diagram of length 0.524375cm. Find the area of the paper not covered by the diagram. correct to 3 significant figures.
Answer Details
Area of the paper = area of square = L x B or S2
where s = S x k
Area of the paper = (2.524)2
area of the diagram = (0.524)2
area not covered = (2.524)2 - (0.524)2
= 6.370576 - 0.274576
= 6.096
= 6.10cm2 (2 s.f)
