Math Problem Statement

Opstil et udtryk for figurens omkreds og areal. (brug * som gangetegn)

Solution

The problem in the image asks for expressions to calculate the perimeter ("omkreds") and area ("areal") of a square with side length aa. Here are the expressions:

  1. Perimeter: The perimeter of a square is the sum of all four sides. Since each side is of length aa, the perimeter is: Perimeter=4×a=4a\text{Perimeter} = 4 \times a = 4 * a

  2. Area: The area of a square is the length of one side squared. Since each side is of length aa, the area is: Area=a2=aa\text{Area} = a^2 = a * a

Would you like more details or have any further questions?

Here are 5 related questions to expand the topic:

  1. How does the formula for the perimeter change for a rectangle?
  2. What happens to the area if the side length aa doubles?
  3. Can you derive the formulas for perimeter and area for any polygon?
  4. How does the area of a square relate to the area of a circle inscribed in it?
  5. What real-world situations might require calculating the perimeter or area of a square?

Tip: Always remember that the area is in square units (like cm2\text{cm}^2) while the perimeter is in linear units (like cm).
