Question

The perimeter of the shaded part of a square is 28 inches. find the area of the square

Answer 1

Explanation:

A square has 4 equal sides therefore to find the side of one we would divide the perimeter by 4. Doing that we get 7 inches.

Now seeing as it has four equal sides in order for us to find the area we would do:

Area = side x side = 7x7 = 49 squared inches
