The larger the perimeter of a square the larger the area of that square?

The area of a square is a function of the perimeter of the square.


What is the perimeter of the larger square?

The perimeter of a square is four times the length of its side.


What is larger area or perimeter?

It depends. With a square with a side of 2, the perimeter is 8 while the area is 4. With a square with a side of 10, the perimeter is 40 while the area is 100. Usually, though, you'll find that the area is larger than the perimeter.


Is perimeter larger than the area of square?

Perimeter is length or distance (inches, feet, meters). Area is square units (length2 : square inches, square feet, square meters), so to say that one is larger than another is not relevant. If it's a 1 by 1, then the perimeter is 4 and the area is 1. But if the square is 5 by 5, then it has a perimeter of 20 and an area of 25. It depends, good luck.


How do you get the area of a square from the perimeter?

you take the given perimeter, divide it by four (because a square has four sides, equal in length), and whatever number you get, you multiply by itself (because to find the area of a square you multiply length by width, or in other words, square the length of the side). for example: the perimeter is 24. 24 divided by 4 is 6. 6 x 6=36.


How do you find the area of a square with the perimeter?

A square has all 4 of its perimeter lengths equal. Thus the length of the perimeter divided by 4 will give you the 'unitary' dimension. Multiply this 'unitary' dimension by itself (square it) and the result is the area of the square in question.


How can you find the length of a side of a square if you know the perimeter?

If a square has sides of length x, it's perimeter must be 4x. Therefore the length of one of those sides is the perimeter divided by 4. Square this number (multiply it by itself) to get the area of the square.


Suppose you consider a Retangular floor space of 36 square meters with whole number side lengths. which design has the least perimeter?

The closer you get to a perfect square, the smaller the perimeter. A 6x6 square will have a 24 perimeter. A 36x1 will have the largest perimeter. The area is the same, but the length has 'stretched' to cover a larger perimeter.


If you have the area of a square how do you calculate the perimeter?

What you have to do is to Squarerootthe Perimeter then multiply the answer by 4For example if the area is 256 , and Perimeter is ?solution=Perimeter is 64Answered by Faustin,Obedi


What happens to the size of the perimeter when the dimensions of a square are tripled?

it becomes three times larger


Is an area or perimeter bigger?

Perimter is linear; area is two-dimensional. While the values may be either larger or smaller (for example, consider a square with one unit's width, then a square with 5 units' width), area will always be larger because of the extra dimension.


Is it sometimes always or never true that the perimeter of a rectangle is numerically greater than its area?

Sometimes. Experiment with a small square and with a large square (though any shape rectangle will do). A square of 4 x 4 has a perimeter of 16, and an area of 16. A smaller square has more perimeter than area. A larger square has more area than perimeter.
