Lets get started :)
The perimeter of the square is given
P = 72 in
The perimeter formula of a square is P = 4 x sides
To find the value of the side, we divide by 4
72 = 4s
[tex] \frac{72}{4} = \frac{4s}{4} [/tex]
4 and 4 cancels out
18 in = side
The area formula of a square is
A = (side)²
= (18)²
= 324 in²
