The perimeter of the given figure, knowing that the side length is 6 cm is 24 cm
How to calculate the perimeter of the square?
Perimeter of a shade is defined as the sum total of all the sides of the shape. Thus, it is written as:
Perimeter of shape = Total sum of all the sides of the shape
Now, we know that a square has only four (4) sides and all the sides are equal. Thus, we can calculate the perimeter of the shapes as follow:
- Side 1 = 6 cm
- Side 2 = 6 cm
- Side 3 = 6 cm
- Side 4 = 6 cm
- Perimeter of square =?
Perimeter of square = side 1 + side 2 + side 3 + side 4
Perimeter of square = 6 + 6 + 6 + 6
= 24 cm
Therefore, the perimeter of the square is 24 cm
