A square of area 36 cm2 is cut to make two rectangles, A and B the ratio of A to area b is 2 : 1

24 cm² and 12 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum the parts of the ratio, 2 + 1 = 3 parts

Divide the area by 3 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

36 cm² ÷ 3 = 12 cm² ← value of 1 part of the ratio , thus

2 parts = 2 × 12 = 24 cm²

area of A = 12 cm² and area of B = 24 cm²

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)
