In the figure, the area of the square of the square PQRS is 100cm². If the ratio of the area of the square TUYS to the area of the area of the square XQVU is 1 : 16, Find YR

Correct Answer: Option C

Explanation

Since area of square PQRS = 100cm²
each lenght = 10cm
Also TUYS : XQVU = 1 : 16
lengths are in ratio 1 : 4, hence TU : UV = 1: 4
Let TU = x
UV = 1: 4
hence TV = x + 4x = 5x = 10cm
x = 2cm
TU = 2cm
UV = 8cm
But TU = SY and UV = YR
YR = 8cm
