The square has all four sides equal therefore the perimeter is four times the length of any side of the square.


P=4L

In this case, we have that all four sides are equal to 4.5. Then, L=4.5.

Using the perimeter formula:


P=4(4.5meters)
P=18\text{meters}

Hence, the perimeter is equal to 18 meters. The correct answer is

option D.
