The percentage error in the area of the square will be twice the percentage error in the length of the square. This is because the error in the length affects both the length and width of the square, resulting in a compounded effect on the area. Therefore, if there is a 1 percent error in the length, the percentage error in the area would be 2 percent.

It means that the measured value is greater than the true value. Unless the experiment can be made error-free, that should happen around half the time.
An irregular* pentagon *means that the sides are not all the same length
Since the period of a simple pendulum (for short swings) in proportional to the square root of its length, then making the length one quarter of its original length would make the period one half of its original period.Periodapproximately = 2 pi square root (length/acceleration due to gravity)
