what is the perimeter of the square in figure 1?
Answers
The perimeter of a square is the total length of all the sides of the square. Hence we can find the perimeter of a square by adding all its four sides. The perimeter of the given square is a + a + a + a. ... Hence, the formula of the perimeter of a square = 4 × (length of any one side).
Concept:
A square is a quadrilateral with four equal sides and four equal angles that is a regular quadrilateral. The square's angles are at a straight angle or 90 degrees. The square's diagonals are also equal and split at a 90-degree angle.
A rectangle with two opposite sides that have the same length can also be referred to as a square.
The square's area is the area that it occupies in a two-dimensional plane. The area in this case is equal to the sides' square, or sides squared. It has a square unit of measurement.
Area = Side² per square unit
If 'a' is the square's side length, then;
Area= a² square units
The square's perimeter is equal to the product of its four sides. The square's side length continues to be the same as the perimeter measurement unit.
Perimeter = Side + Side + Side + Side
= 4x side
Square's four sides are its perimeter.
If "a" is a square's side length, then the perimeter is:
Perimeter= 4a units
Given:
Figure of a square of side length of a =25cm
Find:
What is the perimeter of the square in figure 1?
Solution:
a=25cm
Perimeter = 4a
=4 x 25
=100 cm
Therefore hte perimeter of a square of side length of 25 cm is 100 cm.
