Question

A square has an area of 144 sq. units. how long is its perimeter?

Answer 1

Formula for Area of a square:


`\boxed {\boxed {\text {Area = Length x Length}}}`

Given that the area is 144 unit²:


`\text {Length}^2 = 144`


`\text {Length} = √(144) = 12 \text { units}`

Formula for Perimeter of a square:


`\boxed {\boxed {\text {Perimeter = 4 x Length }}}`


`\text {Perimeter = } 4 * 12 = 48 \text { units}`



`\boxed { \boxed { \text {Answer: The perimeter is 48 units.}}}`
