The area of the square will separated into two equal rectangles each of them has an area that equal half of the original square.
The area is increased by a factor of 9.
If a square has a side length of 4 centimetres, then its area is equal to 4 x 4 = 16cm2 (16 square centimetres).If a square has a side length of 8 centimetres, then its area is equal to 8 x 8 = 64cm2 (64 square centimetres).Therefore, by doubling the side length of a square, the squares area quadruples.
To double the area of a square, you must multiply the length of the sides by the square root of 2, √2, which is about 1.414.
The area is increased to 3x3=9 times the original.
The area of a square with a side of 27.5mm is: 756.25 mm2
