Question 372148
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">


Typing in all caps is the electronic communications equivalent of shouting.  It is both annoying and rude.


Let *[tex \Large s] represent the measure of the side of the larger square.  Then *[tex \Large s\ -\ 2] is the measure of the side of the smaller square, *[tex \Large (s\ -\ 2)^2] is the area of the smaller square, and *[tex \Large s^2] is the area of the larger square.


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ (s\ -\ 2)^2\ =\ s^2\ -\ 20]



Solve for *[tex \Large s] for the sides of the sign, subtract 2 for the sides of the poster.

*[tex \LARGE e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0]
My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
