If the area of a square is 1024 m2, find the perimeter.
1024/4 = 256 265 * 4 = 1024 area = perimeter on squares? @Will.H
\[A = a^2\] --> are of a square we will need to find the length of the side we may do that through transfering the formula above to \[a = \sqrt A\] where A is the area
So how much would the length of side be?
need help?
|dw:1474570066034:dw|
well you are wrong solving that way the length of the side is not 4! solve using the formula i posted for solving for the side \[a = \sqrt A\] where A is the area so therefor \[a = \sqrt 1024\] which sets a = 32 <--- that's the length of the side Now here's what we have |dw:1474570524364:dw|
Now you can find the perimeter
I know the length of th eside is not 4, that was an example
oh then your example is correct but not always the piremeter and area of a square are the same
in fact it is rare
let me know if you need additional help
√1024 = 32 32 * 4 = 128 perimeter = 128
