Perimeter of square calculator
To calculate the perimeter of a square, you need to add up the lengths of all its four sides. Here’s how you can use a calculator to find the perimeter of a square:
- Measure the length of one of the sides of the square.
- Write down the length of the side.
- Multiply the length of the side by 4.
- The result is the perimeter of the square.
Alternatively, you can use the following formula to calculate the perimeter of a square:
Perimeter = 4 × Side
Where Side is the length of the side of the square.
Here’s an example to illustrate the process:
Suppose you have a square with a side length of 6 meters.
To find the perimeter of this square, you would follow these steps:
- Measure the length of one of the sides: 6 meters.
- Write down the length of the side: 6 meters.
- Multiply the length of the side by 4: 6 × 4 = 24 meters.
- The perimeter of the square is 24 meters.
