Find the area of square field whose diagonal is 24 mtrs.

A) 288 sq.m.
B) 488 sq.m.
C) 216 sq.m.
D) 284 sq.m.

Correct Answer:

A) 288 sq.m.

Description for Correct answer:
The area of a square = \( \Large \frac{d^{2}}{2} \).

Where 'd' is the length of the diagonal.

=\( \Large \frac{24^{2}}{2}=\frac{24 \times 24}{2} \)

=\( \Large 12 \times 24 = 288\ sq.cm. \)
