The value of a is 1 if the area of square ABCD is 10 cm² showing that x²+6x=a where a is a constant.
It is defined as the area occupied by the rectangle in two-dimensional planner geometry.
The area of a rectangle can be calculated using the following formula:
Rectangle area = length x width
The question is incomplete.
The question is:
The area of square ABCD is 10 cm² showing that x²+6x=a where a is a constant to be found.
The missing figure is attached; please refer to the picture.
As we can see in the figure we have given a rectangle.
Area of rectangle = (3 + x)(3 + x)
10 = (3 + x)(3 + x)
or
10 = (3 + x)²
10 = 9 + 6x + x²
After rearranging:
x² + 6x = 1
We have equation:
x² + 6x = a
After comparing:
a = 1
Thus, the value of a is 1 if the area of square ABCD is 10 cm² showing that x²+6x=a where a is a constant.
