Answer 1

560 meters is your perimeter

Explanation:

Note that the total area of the square is 19600, and that the Area of square = side x side

19600 = s²

Solve for s. Root both sides

√(s²) = √(19600)

s = √19600

s = 140

One side of the square is 140.

Note that there are 4 sides in a square. Multiply 140 with 4

140 x 4 = 560

Answer: 560
