The perimeter of square is given as,


(4x-44)

Let length of side is denoted as S.

The formula for the perimeter of square is,


P=4* S

To calculate the side of square , substitute the value of perimeter in the above formula.


(4x-44)=4* S\text{.}

Solving the equation we get,


4(x-11)=4* S\text{.}
(x-11)=S.

The length of the square obtained is ,


S=(x-11).
