We know that the area of the square is the square of the side length.
We also know that the perimeter is 4 times the side length.
So if we know the area, we have to find the side length and then calculate the perimeter.
If A is the area and x is the side length, we have:
We now know the side length (x=2 cm).
Then, we can calculate the perimeter P as:
Answer: the perimeter of a 4cm²-area square is 8 cm
If the perimeter is 108 cm, we can calculate the side length and then the area as:
Answer: when the perimeter of a square is 108 cm, its area is 729 cm^2
