Question

What is the perimeter of a square?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of a square be represented as "x".

The perimeter of a square is the sum of it's sides. Since the sides are equal, we can add x four times to get the perimeter.

`\rightarrowtail \text{Perimeter of square} = 4 * x`

`\rightarrowtail \text{Perimeter of square} = x + x + x + x`

`\rightarrowtail \boxed{\text{Perimeter of square} = 4x}`

To find the perimeter of the square, simply substitute the side length of the square into 4(Side length) to find the perimeter.
