Question

Find the perimeter of a square that is 3inches on a side. 7 inches 15 inches 12 inches 30 inches

Answer 1

12 inches

Explanation:

A square has 4 sides with the same length.

The perimeter of a square is the 4 times the length of one side.

perimeter = 4s

perimeter = 4 * 3 inches

perimeter = 12 inches

Answer 2

For this case we have that by definition, the perimeter of a square is given by:

`P = 4l`

Where:

l: It's the side of the square

We have according to the data that:

`l = 3`

So:

`P = 4 (3) = 12`

Finally, the perimeter is 12 inches

Answer:

12 inches
