Question

Find the length of each side of a square whose perimeter is 36 cm.

Answer 1

Perimeter of a square is equal to the sum of its four sides.
A square has all its four sides equal. Let each side measure 'x' cm.
Then, x + x + x + x = 36
4x = 36
x = $\frac{36}{4}$ = 9
Thus, the length of each side of the square is 9 cm.
