📊 Error in Square’s Area Calculation 🤔
Actual side of square = x 📏
Measured side = x + 2% excess error = 1.02x 📏
Actual Area = x² 📊
Calculated Area = (1.02x)² = 1.0404x² 📊
Error in Area = Calculated Area – Actual Area = 0.0404x² 📊
Percentage Error in Area = (Error in Area / Actual Area) × 100 = 4.04% 👍
🎉 The calculated area has an error of approximately 4.04%! 🎉
