Question

The perimeter of a square of side 12 meters is

• A. 60 meters
• B. 48 meters
• C. 36 meters
• D. 24 meters

Answer 1

The correct option is B

48 meters

We know that the perimeter of any square is four times the length of its side.

i.e., If '$s$' is the length of the side of a square, then its perimeter '$P$' is given by $P=4\times s$

Given, $s$ = 12 m, Then the perimeter of the given square is,

$P=4\times 12=48\text{meters}$.
