In the figure in front of you there are 3 squares
Write down the area of the shape in potential notation
Using the formula for the area of a square whose side is b:
In the picture, we are presented with three squares whose sides from left to right have a length of 6, 3, and 4 respectively:
Therefore the areas are:
square units respectively,
Consequently the total area of the shape, composed of the three squares, is as follows:
square units
To conclude, we recognise through the rules of substitution and addition that the correct answer is answer C.
Which of the following is equivalent to the expression below?
\( \)\( 10,000^1 \)
Potential notation here means using exponents to show how area is calculated. Instead of writing 3×3, we write to show the side length is raised to the power of 2.
Because area of a square equals side × side, which is the same as side squared. Writing is more elegant than 6×6 and shows the mathematical relationship clearly.
No! The question asks for the area in notation form, so is the complete answer. Don't calculate 9 + 36 + 16 = 61.
The order doesn't matter for addition! Whether you write or , both are correct because addition is commutative.
Look carefully at the figure labels. Each square has its side length marked. The smallest square is 3×3, the largest is 6×6, and the medium one is 4×4.
