The area of a square is 144 cm' and one of its sides is (x + 2) cm. Find x and then theside of the square

The side of the square is 12 cm and x = 10 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it's a square, it's sides have the same length.

Hence, since one of it's sides is x + 2, the other side must be x + 2 as well.

Therefore, we can set up an equation:

Hence, the side of the square is 12 cm and x = 10 cm.

Hope this helped!

solution:

the given function is ,

      =

the three roots of this quadratic function is , 0 ,8 and 10.all the roots are real and rational.

if a quadratic equation is of the form ,

sum of the roots = a + b +c= 0+8+10=18=  

product of roots taken two at a time = a b + b c+ c a = 0+80+0=80 =  

product of roots = a b c = 0=  

there are 11 doors in a hall starting from 0 to 11.the entry in the hall is permitted through gate number 0 and exit is allowed through only gate number 8 and 10.so, three roots(0,8,10) of quadratic function is given by entry and exit route of this hall.
