You use linear units to express it, such as meters or millimeters, if that's what you mean.

Is perimeter calculated in square feet?

Perimeter is in feet and not in square feet


Is the perimeter of a square a linear or nonlinear function of the length of one of its sides?

linear, if side is x then perimeter is 4x


8' x 8' is how many linear feet?

To determine the linear feet of an 8' x 8' area, you need to calculate the perimeter. The perimeter of a square is given by the formula P = 4 × side length. For an 8' x 8' square, the perimeter is 4 × 8' = 32 linear feet.


Explain why perimeter is measured in units and area is measured in square units?

Because the perimeter is a linear measurement, and area is measured by multiplying 2 linear measurements together.


Why is perimeter measured in linear units?

Perimeter is measured in Linear Units because it is Measurement of The Outline or Path of a given shape or area; a Perimeter is NOT the Measurement of What is Inside that Outline/Path. It is a One-Dimensional measurement, which MEANS it is a Linear Unit Measurement, such as Feet or Meters.Alternatively, a Two-Dimensional Measurement, is the Square of a Linear Unit -- like AREA is a Two-Dimensional Measurement and therefore Measured in Linear Units Squared (i.e. meters2/Square Meters or feet2/Square Feet). Area is the Measurement of What is Contained within a given Perimeter.


Is perimeter measured in cubic units or square?

Neither. Volume is cubic units and area is square units. Perimeter is just units.


Is the circumference of a square linear?

A square can't have a circumference. That's only for circles squares have area, volume, or perimeter.


The perimeter of a square with sides of 2 feet is 8 feet The perimeter of a square with sides of 4 feet is 16 feet What linear equation fits this situation?

y=4x


How many square units equals a perimeter?

Perimeter is a measurement of the total distance around a shape and is expressed in linear units, such as meters or feet. Square units, on the other hand, measure area, which is the space contained within a shape. Therefore, perimeter cannot be directly converted into square units, as they represent different dimensions: one is linear and the other is two-dimensional.


If a home is 2000 square feet how many linear feet is the perimeter of the home?

There's no way to calculate that just from square footage.


Does perimeter have to end in squared?

No, perimeter does not end in squared because it is a linear measurement representing the total distance around a two-dimensional shape. Unlike area, which is measured in square units (like square meters), perimeter is expressed in standard linear units (like meters or feet). Thus, when calculating perimeter, you simply add the lengths of all sides without squaring the values.


What is the relationship between scale factor and perimeter?

It is a strict linear relationship. Double the size, double the perimeter. The area, however, increases by the square of the scale factor.
