Answer:

225

Explanation:

Well, the formula for perimeter is simply 2 times length + 2 times width. In the case of our square, this would simply be 2x+2x (since length = width), or 4x . Therefore, if given an area, all you'd do is take the square root (to get from x2 to x , and then multiply by 4 to find perimeter.
