Diagram shows a framework consisting of 16 wooden rods. the length of each rod is 8 cm.
8
1)all the rods are rearranged to form a square. calculate the area, in cm, of the square.

1024 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 16 rods.  A square has 4 equal sides, so each side must consist of 4 rods.  The length of each rod is 8 cm, so the length of each of the square's sides is 32 cm.  Therefore, the area of the square is:

A = s²

A = (32 cm)²

A = 1024 cm²

$8

step-by-step explanation:

it is pretty much backwards.

you take the 4x2 multiply that, and that is = $8
