Question

Find the side of a square if it's perimeter is 98 cm.​

Answer 1

The side of a square if it's perimeter is 98 cm is 24.5 cm.

Given

The perimeter of a square is given by P = 98 cm

To find

We have to find the value of the side of this square.

Solution

Suppose the side of this square is a.

Now the formula between the perimeter and the side of a square is

P = 4a

By putting the values of P we get,

98 = 4 × a ⇒ a = $\frac{98}{4}$  ⇒ a = 24·5 cm

The side of the square is 24·5 cm if it's perimeter is 98 cm·

Answer 2

The given data in the question is as below

The perimeter of square$=$$98 cm$

We have to find the side a of square

As we know that,

The perimeter of a square$=$ $4 \times side$

                                        $98$$=$$4$$\times side$  

Divide $98$ by $4$ we get,

                                    $side = \frac{98}{4}$

                                    $side=24.5 cm$

Therefore, the side of a square is equal to $24.5 cm$.
