Question

Perimeter of a square shaped box is 72 cm. What is its area

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of square is givan by 4a whare a is the side of square

so, 4a = 72

a = 72/4

= 18 cm

hence area of square = side ×side

= 18×18 cm^2

=324 cm^2

Answer 2

Answer:

• Area of square = 324 cm²

Given :

• Perimeter of a square shaped box is 72 cm.

To find :

• Area of square =?

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of square = 4 × side

Substituting the values in the above formula, we get,

72 = 4 × side

side = 72/4

side = 18

Now,

Area of square = side²

Substituting the values in the above formula, we get,

= 18²

= 18 × 18

= 324 cm²

So, the area of square = 324 cm².
