the length is equal to 20

A= S²

A= 20²

A= 400

P= 4S

P= 4(20)

P= 80

A= P × 5

A= 80×5

A= 400

Answer:

The length of a side of the square is 20 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use algebra to solve this problem. Let's call the length of a side of the square "s".

We know that the area of a square is equal to s² and the perimeter of a square is equal to 4s.

From the problem statement, we know that:

s² = 5(4s)

We can simplify this equation by multiplying 4s:

s² = 20s

Now we can divide both sides of the equation by s:

s = 20

Hence, the length of a side of the square is 20 units.

  • A square is a two-dimensional geometric shape with four equal sides and four right angles. The opposite sides of a square are parallel and of equal length. A square can be defined by its side length, which is the distance from one corner of the square to the opposite corner along a side.
  • A square can also be defined by its perimeter, which is the sum of the lengths of all its sides. The perimeter of a square is equal to four times the length of a side.
  • A square can also be defined by its area, which is the amount of space inside the square. The area of a square is equal to the length of a side squared (s²).
