Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of a Square
Locate the area or perimeter of the square. The area or perimeter of the square has to be provided to find its dimensions. For example, suppose the area of a square is 25 square feet. Write down the area equation for a square: A = t^2 where "A" stands for the area and "t" stands one of the side lengths. Remember you only have to find one dimension since the square has four equal sides.
Solve the area equation. It will look like this 25 = t^2. You have to isolate "t" to find the dimension of the square. Do this by taking the square root of 25; this will cancel out the square sign on the right side of the equation. The answer for the square root will be 5. The final answer is 5 = t, so each dimension of the square is 5 feet.
