Which of the squares has an area that is equal to its perimeter?

A square that measures 4 per side. Perimeter = L + L + L + L = 4L = 4*4 = 16 Area = L * L = 4*4 = 16 Although technically they won't be equal since perimeter has units of length, while area has units of squared length.


A triangle or a square or a rectangle or a pentagon or a hexagon or an octagon or a circle has the least area and which has the maximum area if the perimeter of each is 44 cm?

Triangle-least area, circle- most area, per given perimeter . The circle would have an area of 154 square cm. the triangle could have an area of almost zero if it were a long, skinny triangle. An equilateral triangle would have an area approx 92.8 sq cm.


What is the surface area of a cube with 10 inches per sides?

The surface area is 600 sq. inches. The formula for surface area of a cube is 6s^2 where s is the side length. The general surface area formula is 2B+Ph where B is the area of the base, P is the perimeter of the base and h is the height.


How is perimeter used in real world?

Several uses come to mind. For one, the perimeter of a building, multiplied by the wall height gives an estimate of how much paint, siding, sheathing plywood, etc. are needed to do some work. For things with a circular shape, say a small lake, you can tell the distance across the lake by walking the perimeter and dividing that distance by pi to get the diameter, i.e., distance . Doing the same kind of thing on a flag pole allows you to decide how long the screws must be to mount a flag pulley. Another is using the perimeter of something like a lawn or garden to estimate how much seed, fertilizer, or other material is needed when you know that it should be used as so much per acre/square yard/square foot or other area.

How do you solve this problem Find the cost of fencing a factory yard 480m long and 220m wide at 30 per meter?

The length of fencing required is the perimeter of the area to be enclosed. That is, the sum of all the sides of the shape. The yard is 480m x 220m so the perimeter is 2*(480+220) = 2*700 = 1400m. Then, @ 30 per metre, the fencing will cost 1400*30 = 42000 units of currency.

How many foot are on an acre?

The distance around is called the perimeter. You can't calculate the perimeter from the area, unless you know the shape. For example, a circle, a square, a 2:1 rectangle, a 3:1 rectangle, all have different perimeters for the same area.
