Agroup of students is given a 10 by 10 grid to cut into individual unit squares. the challenge is to create two squares using all of the unit squares. their teacher states that after the two new squares are formed, one should have a side length two units greater than the other.

which equation represents x, the side length of the greater square?

x2 + (x – 2)2 = 10
x2 + 2x2 = 10
x2 + (x – 2)2 = 100
x2 + 2x2 = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The measurement of the grid = 10 × 10

So, the area of the grid = 100 square unit,

Now let x be the side of larger square that is formed by the grid,

Thus, according to the question,

The side of smaller square = (x-2) unit,

Hence, we can write,

The area of square having side x + The area of square having side (x-2) = The total area covered by grid

Which is the required equation.
