Question

Perimeter of square is 24 cm. Find its side and area.
​

Answer 1

Answer: Perimeter of a square is 24 cm.

To Find :

Area of the square

Solution :

We know,

     Perimeter of the square = 4 × (Length of each side of the square)

Let the length of the sides be 'a'

So,    Perimeter of the square = 4 × a

⇒                  24                        = 4 × a

⇒                  a                          =

∴                   a                          = 6 cm

Therefore, length of each side of the square is 6 cm

Now, Area of the square (A) = (Side)

                                              =  (6)

                                              = 36 cm

∴ The area of the square is 36 cm.

Answer 2

Answer:

using the formula

perimeter of square =4× side

24=4× side

24/4 = side

side = 6cm^2

Area of square = side ^2

= 6^2

= 36 cm^2
