Shapes have areas and perimeters. Since the value of the area is in square units and the perimeter is not, you don't convert one to the other but sometimes you will be able to find out one value if you have the other.
Squares are easiest. The area is found by multiplying one side by another. Finding the square root of that number will give you the length of one side. Multiplying that side length by 4 will give you the perimeter.
For the SAME area, you can have DIFFERENT perimeters. Therefore, you can't really calculate the perimeter only from the area, unless you have additional information - such as, what type of shape you are talking about (a circle, a square, a rectangle with a ratio of sides 1:2, etc.).

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
Area of rhombus if area and perimeter is given and if you have to find altitude?
Perimeter = 4*Side so that Side = Perimeter/4 Area of a rhombus = Side * Altitude so Altitude = Area/Side = Area/(Perimeter/4) = 4*Area/Perimeter
Is 56cm a perimeter or area?
It must be a perimeter. An area measurement would a square measurement like 56cm². ■
What is the perimeter for a polygon that's area is 20sq. units?
Even if you knew how many sides the polygon has, you stillcould not calculate its perimeter with that much information.Examples:-- An equilateral triangle with area of 20 has perimeter of 20.3885 .-- A square with area of 20 has perimeter of 17.889(rounded).-- A rectangle with area of 20 can have any perimeter more than 17.889 .4 by 5 . . . . area = 20, perimeter = 182 by 10 . . . area = 20, perimeter = 241 by 20 . . . area = 20, perimeter = 42..etc.
Why does the greatest area equal the greatest perimeter?
Because area is a function of perimeter.

Is carpeting a floor a area are a perimeter?
It is area, not perimeter!
Area of rhombus if area and perimeter is given and if you have to find altitude?
Perimeter = 4*Side so that Side = Perimeter/4 Area of a rhombus = Side * Altitude so Altitude = Area/Side = Area/(Perimeter/4) = 4*Area/Perimeter
Are area and perimeter dimensions?
area 63 and perimeter is 32
What is the area and the perimeter of 11Cm by 4Cm?

What is the area of a rectangle that is a perimeter of 30?
It can be 56.25 or anything less, but not more. You can't tell the area from the perimeter, and you can't tell the perimeter from the area. -- if each side is 7.5, the perimeter is 30, and the area is 56.25 -- if it's (5 by 10), the perimeter is still 30, and the area is 50 -- if it's (4 by 11), the perimeter is still 30, and the area is 44 -- if it's (3 by 12), the perimeter is still 30, and the area is 36 -- if it's (2 by 13), the perimeter is still 30, and the area is 26 -- if it's (1 by 14), the perimeter is still 30, and the area is 14

What does fence mean area or perimeter?
Perimeter.
What is the relationship for perimeter and area for rectangle?
There is no relationship between the perimeter and area of a rectangle. Knowing the perimeter, it's not possible to find the area. If you pick a number for the perimeter, there are an infinite number of rectangles with different areas that all have that perimeter. Knowing the area, it's not possible to find the perimeter. If you pick a number for the area, there are an infinite number of rectangles with different perimeters that all have that area.
How do you turn square feet into a perimeter?
To find the perimeter of a shape given the area in square feet, you need to know the dimensions of the shape. If it's a square or rectangle, you can calculate the perimeter by finding the square root of the area to get the side length, and then multiply that by 4 for a square or 2 times the sum of the length and width for a rectangle. If it's a different shape, you will need additional information to determine the perimeter.
