Question

Find the perimeter of the square in which each side is:

$12m6cm$

Answer 1

Given side of square $\left(a\right)=12m6cm$

$=12\times 100+6$ $[\because 1m=100cm]$

$$\begin{gathered} =1200+6 \\ =1206cm \end{gathered}$$

The perimeter of a shape is defined as the total distance around the shape. It is the length of the outline or boundary of any two-dimensional geometric shape.

Perimeter of square $=4\times side$

$$\begin{gathered} =4\times 1206 \\ =4824cm \end{gathered}$$

$=48m24cm$ $[\because 1cm=\frac{1}{100}m]$

Hence perimeter of square is $48m24cm$
