Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I attached an image to aid the understanding of the question.
Looking at the image, we see that the 8 shaded parts are congruent, as affirmed in the question as well. And we are told that T = 3, this implies that the area of the square with T as it's side is 9ft². Since all the 8 squares are congruenrt, it means each square has its area to be 9. Therefore, the total area of the 8 shaded squares will be:
It remains the area of the shaded square with side S.
From the question, we have the following ratio:
I did not add ± because length is always positive, so the case of negative is eliminated.
Now the areas of S is
Therefore, the total area of the shaded squares is
If you look at the rectangle properly, you can see that the diagonal creates two triangles, and if we only focus on one triangle, we can see that the bad of the triangle is 7 and the perpendicular height is 4
Using Pythagorean theorem we can figure out the hypotenuse, or the diagonal
C squared is equal to a squared plus b squared
7^2+4^2 is 65
Square root of 65 is 8.1
