Suppose you have two squares, one of which is larger than the other. Suppose further that the side of the larger square is twice as long as the side of the smaller square. If the length of the side of the smaller square is 13 miles, give the area of each square.

The area of smaller square is mi².

The area of larger square is mi².

How many of the smaller squares will it take to cover the larger square? smaller squares will cover the larger square.

    Area = height x width = hw = side ^2

    Area Small Square = 13miles x 13miles = 169 miles squared

    Area Large Square = 26miles x 26miles = 676 miles squared

    It will take 4 smaller squares to cover the larger square.
