Draw a graph for the following.
| Side of square (in cm) | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | | Area (in cm2) | 4 | 9 | 16 | 25 | 36 |
Is it a linear graph?
Choosing a suitable scale,
For x-axis, 1 unit = 1 cm and for y-axis, 1 unit = 4 cm2
We can represent the side of a square on the x-axis and the area of that square on y-axis. A graph of the given data is as follows.
It is not a linear graph.
