Math Problem Statement

You know the perimeter of a square to be 11 meters. Find the length of one side.

Step 1 of 3 :

Choose the correct formula.

Solution

To find the length of one side of a square given the perimeter, we use the formula for the perimeter of a square:

Perimeter=4×side\text{Perimeter} = 4 \times \text{side}

This is the correct formula to relate the perimeter and the side length of a square.
