Answer:

116 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

a = side length of A

b = side length of B

b = a + 4

b² = a² + 70

(a+4)² = a² + 70

a² + 8a + 16 = a² + 70

8a + 16 = 70

8a = 54

a = 54/8 = 27/4 = 6.75

b² = a² + 70 = 6.75² + 70 = 45.5625 + 70 =

= 115.5625 ≈ 116 cm²

our does your teacher mean 3 significant figures after the decimal point ? then it would be

115.563 cm²
