Why does the perimeter of a square double when you double the sides of a square?
The perimeter is the sum of the sides. So if a square has a side of length 1, its perimeter is 1+1+1=1 = 4 If a square has a side doubled to length 2, its perimeter is 2+2+2+2 = 8, or double what it was before. Mathematically, if each side is length x it perimeter is x + x + x = X = 4x If each side is length 2x, its perimeter is 2x +2x+2x+2x = 8x
Is the perimeter of a square doubled when each side is doubled?
no Actually, yes. The four sides can be labeled A, B, C, D. Doubling each side gives 2A, 2B, 2C, and 2D. Factoring out the two gives the expression 2*(A+B+C+D). We recognize (A+B+C+D) as the perimeter of the square. 2*(the perimeter of the square) is twice the perimeter of the square.
What is the perimeter of a 2 inch square if the length of each side is doubled?
if it is a 2 inch square and the side lengths are doubled the side lengths would be 4. therefore 4+4+4+4=16 so the perimeter is 16inches squared.
What is the perimeter if the length of each side a the square perimeter 10 and 8 inches?
The total perimeter can be found by adding the two known sides together - then multiplying by 2 !

Can the number four be the area and perimeter of a square?
No, if it is a square then to have an area of four, each side must be 2 units. Then, the perimeter would be 8. (2+2+2+2)
What will be the area of the square garden when its perimeter is 10 km?
If the perimeter of a square garden is 10 km. Then each side will 10/4, since perimeter of a square is P = 4*s. So each side will be 2.5 km in length.The area of the square garden will be (side)2 . So the area of the garden will be (2.5 km)2 or 6.25 km2

What is the formula for the perimeter of a square and rectangle?
The perimeter of any rectangle is [ 2 x (length + width) ]. Since the length and width of a square are equal, the perimeter of a square is also [ 2 x (side + side) ] = (4 x side).
What is the perimeter of a 2 inch square if the length of each side is doubled?
if it is a 2 inch square and the side lengths are doubled the side lengths would be 4. therefore 4+4+4+4=16 so the perimeter is 16inches squared.
What is the perimeter if the length of each side a the square perimeter 10 and 8 inches?
The total perimeter can be found by adding the two known sides together - then multiplying by 2 !
If the perimeter of a square is 2 meters how many centimeters long is each side?
500. Half a meter on each side.
If each side of a square is doubled then its perimeter a remains the same b is mutiplied by 2 c is multiplied by 4 d is increased by 4?
Take as an example a 5 x 5 square. Perimeter is 20. Double each side: 10 x 10, the new perimeter = 40, so the answer is B, multiplied by 2.
