Answer:
Take a square root, then multiply it by 4.
Explanation:
The defining characteristic of a square is that its length is equal to its width. Take a look below:So, for this particular square, the area is
length
⋅
width
, or
x
⋅
x
=
x
2
. Now, how can you go from this to perimeter?
Well, the formula for perimeter is simply 2 times length + 2 times width. In the case of our square, this would simply be
2
x
+
2
x
(since length = width), or
4
x
.
Therefore, if given an area, all you'd do is take the square root (to get from
x
2
to
x
, and then multiply by 4 to find perimeter.
