Suppose you measure a square piece of carpet to have an edge of length of 10.5 in. Assume that your measurement has a 5% error.
Then, for all you know the edge could be as long as 11in or as short as 10 in. In light of this what are the maximum and minimum values for the carpet's area?
What percent error in the carpet's area and how does this relate to the error of its edge?
Is there any relation of the error in the carpet area to that of its edge's error?
