Question 15 of 15Taniah is trying to find the area of the following square whereWY=10. What is the area?

Answer 1

The area of a square given its diagonal (d) is computed as follows:

`A=(1)/(2)d^2`

In this case, the diagonal is 10 units long, then the area is:

`\begin{gathered} A=(1)/(2)\cdot10^2 \\ A=(1)/(2)\cdot100 \\ A=50\text{ square units} \end{gathered}`
