Give an explanation to go with your answer! a rectangle is placed symmetrically inside a square. the rectangle has sides of length m and n. find the area of the square in terms of m and n.

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

We have the triangles 45° - 45° - 90°. The sides are in ratio 1 : 1 : √2

(look at the second picture).

Therefore we have the equations:

 and  

Solve:

               multiply both sides by √2

              divide both sides by 2

               multiply both sides by √2

            divide both sides by 2

The side length of square is

The area of a square:

i will pick c put check it over to be sure

step-by-step explanation:

.632

step-by-step explanation:

6 * 1/10 = 3/5

3*0.01 = 0.03

3/5 + 0.03 = .63

2*0.002 = .002

.63 + 0.002 = .632
