Question

If the perimeter of a square garden is 84, what is the area of the garden?

Answer 1

441

Explanation:

`P = 4s`

`84 / 4 = 21`

`A = L * W`

`21 * 21 = 441`

Answer 2

441

Explanation:

The perimeter of a square garden is 84.

Each side must be equal because it is a square.

`P=4s`

`84=4s`

`(84)/(4) =s`

`21 = s`

Each side of the square garden is 21.

The area of a square is equal to

`s^2`

`21^2 = 441`

The area of the square garden is 441.
