Question

A square has a perimeter of 44 cm.
Calculate the area of the square.

Answer 1

Answer:

121 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a square = 4L

Where L = sides

Given perimeter = 44

Therefore

44 = 4L

Divide both sides by 4

44/4 = 4L/4

11 = L

L = 11 cm

Area of a square = L^2

L = 11

Therefore

area = 11^2

= 11 x 11

= 121 cm^2

Answer 2

A square has 4 equal sides so you will do 44cm divided by 4 and get 11cm on all side so now you just multiply 2 sides together and you get 121cm^2
