Question

Find the perimeter of a square with an area of 702.25 square yards

Answer 1

106 (yards)

Explanation:

L = W.

area of square = L X W = L².

area = 702.25 = L²

L = 26.5.

perimeter = 4L = 4 (26.5)

= 106 (yards)

Answer 2

perimeter = 106 yards

Explanation:

the sides (s) of a square are congruent.

the area (A) of a square is calculated as

A = s²

given A = 702.25 , then

s² = 702.25 ( take square root of both sides )

s =
`√(702.25)` = 26.5 , then

perimeter = 4s = 4 × 26.5 = 106 yards
