Question

okayy ive been sitting here for hours can someone point me in some direction please? any direction.

A square window has an area of 841 square inches. Find the perimeter of the window.

how would you go about this? i was thinkingg turning the answer somehow back into a square root and dividing it? gahh!!

Answer 1

a square has 4 sides of the same length, it's side is let's say X...to get the area of the square, you have to multiply the length and width, X*X=X^2, so since the area is 841 square inches, so X^2 = 841, X = 29!! This means it's side is 29 inches. Now to get the perimeter, you have to add up all the sides...in this case there are 4 sides, each side being 29 inches. so, perimeter = 29 + 29 + 29 +29

perimeter = 116 ; alternately since this is a square; u can just multiply 29 and 4 to get 116 inches.

the answer: 116 inches

Answer 2

First you have to find a equation we know that. The link of a square are all equal, and we know the formula for the perimeter is 4L=P 4*Length=Perimeter

Since we know the perimeter is 841 we can plug that in then dived by 4 your answer is 210.25

Answer 3

perimeter of square = 4 side = 4 sqrt(area) = 4sqrt(841) in = 116 inches
