MODERATE Error of 10% Excess on Opposite Sides of Square and 10% Shortage on Other

[admin]

While measuring the sides of a square ABCD, (with AB, BC, CD, and DA being its sides and, AB and CD being opposite sites and, BC and DA being opposite sides) :

1> an error of 10% in excess is made on opposite sides AB and CD, and
2> an error of 10% shortage is made on opposite sides BC and DA.

What is the error percentage in the calculated area when compared to the original area?

Hi Amit,

Though the answer is right, I guess there is a mistake in understanding the question.
