for example a 5-inch square has a perimeter of 20 inches and you get that by adding all the sides up (5+5+5+5=20)
The perimeter
The perimeter means the total length around the outside of the shape. If you were to walk this distance you would end up walking whatever the perimeter is equal to.In a square it has four sides. Since each side length is 50 inches you would walk a total of 200 inches.The perimeter OS a square with sides of 50 inches is 200inches
you find it by adding up the numbers of cm " in a square
Add up the sides.
Add up the lengths of all the sides.
The outside.or the 4 sides of the squareMore specifically,All of the edges of the square added together make up the perimeter. Imagine yourself walking all around the edges of a square, the distance you travel is the perimeter..For a square or rhombus (but no other quadrilateral) the perimeter is equal to four times the length of one edge. So if your square is 2cm long on one edge, the perimeter is 4x2cm = 8cm.
The perimeter. There is no numerical answer since the length of the sides of the square can vary based on the particular square.
If the area of a square is 81, then the length of a side is 9. Add up the length of all four sides to get the perimeter: 9 + 9 + 9 + 9
You can`t be sure of the individual sides. A one inch by sixteen inch rectangle, an eight by two inch rectangle, a four inch by four inch rectangle all have the same area (16 square inches) but the first rectangle`s sides add up to 34, the second rectangle`s sides add up to 20, the third rectangle`s sides add up to 16
It is different for each shape. A perimeter is the distance around an object and the area is the square units it takes up.
The area of a square is equal to s2, where the side length is 1. We know the area is 1, so s2 = 1, and therefore s equals 1.We can now check the perimeter. The perimeter equals 4s. Plug in s = 1, and the perimeter is 4. So the square would have side lengths of 1.(Had the area an perimeter not matched up, the square would not have been possible.)
