Answer

Given, the diagonal of a square = 929\sqrt{2} cm

By formula,

The area of a square = 12\dfrac{1}{2} x d2, where d is the length of the diagonal.

So, reason (R) is true.

Given,

The diagonal of a square is 929\sqrt{2} cm.

Area of square =12×(92)2=12×81×2=81 cm2.\text{Area of square } = \dfrac{1}{2} \times (9\sqrt{2})^2 \\[1em] = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 81 \times 2 \\[1em] = 81 \text{ cm}^2.

So, assertion (A) is true.

∴ Both A and R are correct, and R is the correct explanation for A.

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
