can you find the length of a side of the square?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for a square: Area = side^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

81 = s^2 -> S= 9.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find its perimeter of square w/c is 4(9) = p -> p= 36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3s = 36 -> s= 12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then you can find the area of equi. triangle. the formula is 4s^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is 2304 the answer??
