Question

Find the area of a square of perimeter 12 cm?

Answer 1

The answer is `"9 cm"^2`.

Explanation:

Firstly, we have to find the length each side of the square.

The length of each side of the square `rarr` `"12 cm" ÷ 4 = "3 cm"`

The formula to find the area is

`"length " xx " length"`

Hence, the area of the square `rarr` `"3 cm" xx "3 cm" = "9 cm"^2`
