Example Questions

Example Question #12 : Squares

Use the following square to answer the question:

Square2

Find the perimeter.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the perimeter of a square, we will use the following formula:

where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the square.

 

Now, given the square

Square2

We can see the width is 14cm.  Because it is a square, all sides are equal.  Therefore, all sides are 14cm.

Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula.  We get

Example Question #12 : Squares

Find the perimeter of a square that has a length of 15in.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the perimeter of a square, we will use the following formula:

where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the square.

 

Now, we know the length of the square is 15in.  Because it is a square, all sides are equal.  Therefore, all sides are 15 in. 

Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula.  We get

Example Question #13 : Squares

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the perimeter of a square, we will use the following formula:

where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the square.

 

Now, we know the width of the square is 19in.  Because it is a square, all sides are equal.  Therefore, all sides are 19in.  Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula.  We get

Example Question #15 : Squares

Find the perimeter of a square with a width of 8in.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the perimeter of a square, we will use the following formula:

where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the square.

 

Now, we know the width of the square is 8in. Because it is a square, all sides are equal.  Therefore, all sides are 8in.

Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula.  We get

Example Question #20 : How To Find The Perimeter Of Square

The perimeter of a square is 56in.  Find the length of one side.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the perimeter of a square, we use this formula

where a is the length of one side.  A square has 4 equal sides.  That is why we multiply the length of one side by 4.  To find the length of one side, we will solve for a.

 

Now, we know the perimeter of the square is 56in.  So, we can substitute.  We get

 

 

 

 

 

Therefore, the length of one side of the square is 14in.

Example Question #111 : Plane Geometry

Find the perimeter of a square with a width of 9in.

Possible Answers:
