its easy really!! All you have to do is divide the perimeter by 4 (because a square has four sides!) once you got that answer you then times that by its self and you have the area!! :)

How dO you find the perimeter of a square if it only give you the area?
Square root the area and then times the answer by 4
How do you find the area if the perimeter is only given?
If you are talking about a rectangle, you can't find the area from just the perimeter. With a perimeter of say 80 units, the sides could be 10 and 30, with an area of 300 square units. But the sides could also be 5 and 35, with an area of 175 square units. There are lots of other possibilities. If you are talking about a square, that's different. Each side is a quarter of the perimeter, so the area is a quarter of the perimeter multiplied by a quarter of the perimeter.
How do you find the perimeter when you know the area?
There is no possible way to. You can only add up all the sides to get the perimeter.---It is not impossible. You can get the perimeter from area very easily.First, you find the square root of the area, which will be the length of each side (assuming it is a square).Then, once you've found the length of each side, you multiply it by 4, and you should have the perimeter.

How do you find area using perimeter?
It would depend on the shape that you are asking about. Also, only special shapes could express area as a function of the perimeter.Example: a square: area = s2, where s is the length of a side. Perimeter of a square is 4*s.So if P (for perimeter) = 4 * s, then s = P/4,and A (for area) = s2 = (P/4)2 = P2/16But for a rectangle that is not a square, there is no relationship between area and perimeter.
What measurements do you need to find the area and perimeter of a square?
You only need to know the length of one side. Knowing the side length (s) you can find the area (multiply s by s) and perimeter (multiply s by 4)

How do you find the area of a yard using the perimeter in square feet?
You can't only using the perimeter. You have to know length and width.

How do you find the perimeter of a hexagon if the area is given?
In general you cannot find the perimeter of any shape if only the area is given.
How do you determine area when perimeter and length of a square is given?
The perimeter of square is 4 x length If you have perimeter only divide by 4 to get length and The area of square is length x length If you already have length that is all you need to know
How do you find the perimeter and area of a house?
if the house is a square or rectangle then you need only measure two adjoining sides, you can them multiply these together to get the area, or add the two distances together and then times 2 for the perimeter
Which quadrilateral will give you the greatest area for the least perimeter?
A square will. The only shape that can enclose more area with the same perimeter is a circle.
How do you find the area of a square if you have the circumferince?
you can't have circumference with a square. if the have the perimeter(the distance around it) you divide it by four then multiply it by two. this only works with squares, not rectangles.
How do you find the perimeter of a square when only the area is given?
Since you know that a square has four congruent sides, you know that the area is s2. If you want to find the length of one side, take the square root of both sides, so you're left with s= the square root of the area. A square has 4 sides, so to find the perimeter (4s = P), multiply both sides by 4. So you end up with this: P= 4A1/2 where P is the perimeter, A is the area, and the 1/2 means the square root. In simple terms, take the square root and multiply by four.
