Question

The side of a square is 2.5 cm. Find its perimeter and area.

Answer 1

A = 6.25 P = 10

Explanation:

Area = base (hight), 2.5(2.5)

perimeter = add all the sides, 2.5+2.5+2.5+2.5=10

Answer 2

To find the perimeter you need to add all 4 sides of the square. Which would be: 2.5+2.5+2.5+2.5 This would equal to 10. So 10 cm is the perimeter. Now, to find the area you would need to multiply the length times width. And since every side of the square is equal the length and width would both be 2.5 cm. It would be: 2.5 x 2.5 resulting in the area being 6.25 cm
