Problema Solution

The area of a figure is 64 centimeters. Suppose the sides of the figure are doubled. What will be the new area of similar figure

Answer provided by our tutors

n*n=n^2

doubling the sides of the figure (each multiplied by 2)

2n*2n = 4n^2


so assuming the figure is a square, then 2*2 = 4, so the new area will be four times larger (4*64=256)
