Question

Find the length of the side of squares whose perimeters are given below. (a) 64 cm​

Answer 1

Answer :

• The length of the sides of squares is 16cm

Given :

• Perimeter is 64cm

To find :

• Length of the sides

Solution :

Given,

• Perimeter is 64cm

We know that

• Perimeter = 4 × sides

⇥ Perimeter = 4 × sides

⇥ 64 = 4 × sides

⇥ sides = 64/4

⇥ sides = 16cm

Hence,

The length of the sides of squares is 16cm

Verification :

⇥ Perimeter = 4 × sides

⇥ 64 = 4 × 16

⇥ 64 = 64

Hence , Verified

Answer 2

Here the perimeter of the square is given to be 64 cm

We have to find the measure of each side of the square

So, perimeter of square = 4 × side

putting the value of perimeter in the above formula

64 = 4 × side

side = 64/4

= 16 cm

Hence, the measure of each side of the square will be 16 cm
