Question

The area of a square is 361 square feet. What is the distance around the square?

Answer 1

The area of a square is its length times its width: l x w = 361
Since the length of a square is the same as its width, replace 'w' with 'l': l x l = 361
l x l = l² = 361 ---> l = √361 ---> l = √361 ---> l = 19 ft.

Answer 2

Answer:

76 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Square has all equal sides.

Square root 361 to get side lengths

The side length is 19.

You have to find perimeter.

P=4*side lengths

P=4*19

P=76
