If cutting off 5 inches left 4 inches, then the original length of one piece was 9 inches. The other piece was also 9 inches. Therfore the original piece of construction paper was 18 inches

When you fold a square paper vertically the new rectangle has a perimeter of 39 inches what is the original area of the square?
169 square inches. Folding the square in half leaves 2 edges of the original side length and two of half the side length. Therefore: perimeter = side + 1/2 side + side + 1/2 side = 3 sides ⇒ 3 sides = 39 inches ⇒ 1 side = 39 inches ÷ 3 = 13 inches ⇒ area_original_square = 13 inches x 13 inches = 169 square inches.
