So the area of a square is length * width.

And the length = length.

So to find one side, just find the square root of 121.

The square root of 121 is 11.

So one side = 11.

Since there are four sides in a square,

11 * 4 = 44

So the perimeter is 44 inches.

The sides are 11 each because the square root of 121 is 11. So, the permeter is 11 + 11 + 11 + 11 = 44 inches.

Hope this helped!
