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.

How do you find the perimeter and the area of a square?
The perimeter is found by adding the length of each side. The area is found by multiplying the length of the square by the width.
Find the perimeter of the square whose area is 2500msq?
Perimeter of the square: 50+50+50+50 = 200m
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.
What is the perimeter of a square that has an area of 49 cm squared?
The area of square is the square of one of its sides, which are all equal. To find the value of a side, take the square root of the area. In this case the square root of 49cm2 is 7cm. The perimeter is the sum of all four sides of the square, so the perimeter of a square with an area of 49cm2 is 7+7+7+7 = 28, or 4x7 = 28.
What is the formula to find one side of a square?
The answer will depend on what information about the square you have: its perimeter, area, length of diagonal.
How do you find the perimeter of one side of a square when you are given the area and a smaller square inside?
If you are given the area, A square units, then each side of the square is sqrt(A) units. And then the perimeter is 4*sqrt(A) units. The smaller square inside is irrelevant.
How do you find the perimeter using area?
Depending on the figure given you can find the area from the perimeter For example- If you have a square with a perimeter of 24, you divide 24 by 4 because all the sides of a square are congruent. In turn you will 6 as each side of the square The formula for the area of a square is side2 so you get 62 which is 36. The area is 36
How do you find the area if perimeter is given?
If the area is a square, 1/4 of the perimeter is the length of one side. That length squared is the area. The area will be the product of two numbers whose sum is half the perimeter.
What is the area of a square that has a perimeter of 12?
To find the area of a square if the perimeter is given, we must divide it by 4. Here, we have to divide 12 by 4, which is 3. The area of a square is side squared, so that is 3 squared or 9.
If you know a perimeter of a square but not the length or width how do you find the area?
Divide the perimeter by 4 and then square the result to find the area of the square.
Flowchart to find area of area and perimeter of a square?
creat a flowchart that will compute for the area and perimeter of a square?
Have an area of square how do you find the perimeter?
Are you serious ? For a square: Perimeter = 4 times sqrt(area)
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 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 get area of a square with perimeter?
divide the perimeter by four to get the length of one side then square your answer to find the area
How can you find the perimeter of a square if you know the area?
You square-root the area
Find the maxium possible area of a rectangle with a perimeter of 100 feet?
Max rectangular area for a given perimeter is a square.P = 100S = 25Area = 252 = 625 square feet
