Example Questions
Example Question #401 : Quadrilaterals
James found the area of the square below to be 36 centimeters squared.
What is the length of one side of the square?
36 centimeters
9 centimeters
18 centimeters
8 centimeters
6 centimeters
6 centimeters
The area of a square can be found by multiplying the length of a side by itself. 36 is equal to 6 times 6, therefore the length of one side is 6 centimeters.
Example Question #402 : Quadrilaterals
Daphne found the area of the square below to be 81 centimeters squared.
What is the length of one side of the square?
7 centimeters
81 centimeters
20 centimeters
8 centimeters
9 centimeters
9 centimeters
The area of a square can be found by multiplying the length of a side by itself. 81 is equal to 9 times 9, therefore the length of one side is 9 centimeters.
Example Question #403 : Quadrilaterals
If the area of a square is 
To find the area of a square, the length must be multiplied by the height. Since a square has four equal sides, the length and width will have the same measurement. We must, therefore, find the square root of 
Example Question #404 : Quadrilaterals
If the length of a rectangle is four times the width, and the width is 
In order to find the perimeter of a rectangle, we must add the length of all the sides together. In this case, however, we must first determine the length, which can be found by multiplying 
Now we add together the four sides.
Example Question #405 : Quadrilaterals
If the perimeter of a square is 
To find the perimeter of a square, all the sides must be added together. Since a square has 
Example Question #406 : Quadrilaterals
The perimeter of a square is 
To find perimeter, add up all the sides. Since this is a square, all of the sides are going to be the same. So, you can divide 
Example Question #407 : Quadrilaterals
One side of a square is 
The perimeter of a shape is the distance around the shape. The area is the space within the shape. To find the perimeter of a shape, we simply add all the sides together. Since all of a square's sides are equal, and a square has four sides, use the formula:
Example Question #408 : Quadrilaterals
A right triangle has a base of 
What is the perimeter of the rectangle made by combining 2 of these triangles along their hypotenuse?
If the rectangle's length and width are 4 and 7, then perimeter, which is
Example Question #409 : Quadrilaterals
A square has a perimeter of 
The perimeter of a square is the sum of all of its sides. Since a square has four equal sides, the length of one side can be multiplied by four to find the perimeter.
In this problem, however, we are given the perimeter and must find the side.
Therefore, we should divide to find the missing side.
