Question

A piece of wire is 36 cm long. What will be the length of each side if we form a square?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

piece of wire is 36 cm long. What will be the length of each side if we form? a.Square b.An equilateral triangle

given

piece of wire=perimeter of square

so,

perimeter of quare=4*side

36=4*side

9=side

similarly

perimeter of equilateral triangle=3*side

36=3*side

12=side

hence:-

length of each side of square=9cm

length of each side equilateral triangle=12cm

Explanation:

as square as 4 sides hence

36/4 = 9

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

length of the wire = 36 cm

if we form a square the length of the side =  x

  we know that      = perimeter = 4a

                                      a  = perimeter/4

                                          = 36/4

                                      a = 9cm
