A smaller square is within a larger square as shown below. A point is chosen at random in the larger square. What percent of the time will be in the BLUE region? Round to the nearest tenth of a percent.

84.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

15.2 × 15.2 = 231.04 cm² (area of the entire large square)

5.98 × 5.98 = 35.76 cm² (area of the small square)

large square - small square = area of the blue region

231.04 - 35.76 = 195.28 cm² (area of the blue region)

= percentage of time that the point will be in the blue region

= 0.845 --> 84.5%

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.
