Answer:

100 m.

Explanation:

So the area of a square (or any rectangle) is length (l) x width (w). Additionally, all sides of a square are the same length. So if your area is 625 m sq, then one side length would be the square root of 625, which is 25.

So, as we know that one side length is 25 m, and that the perimeter is all side lengths added together, and that a square has four equal sides,

we can add the four lengths of 25 together: (4)(25) [25+25+25+25].

(4)(25) = 100.

The perimeter of the square is 100 m.

Answer:

100 m

Explanation:

Given :

  • Area of square = 625 m²

#1) Finding the side length

  • Area = (side length)²
  • ⇒ side length = √Area
  • ⇒ side length = √625
  • ⇒ side length = 25 m

#2) Calculating perimeter

  • Perimeter = Total length of the sides of the shape
  • Perimeter = 4 x side length [a square has 4 equal sides]
  • ⇒ Perimeter = 4 x 25
  • ⇒ Perimeter = 100 m
