Question

if the area of a square is 27 square feet what is the perimeter

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the perimeter of a square when given the area, we first need to calculate the length of one side of the square using the formula for the area of a square:

Area = side^2

Substitute the given area of 27 square feet:

27 = side^2

Solve for the side length:

side = √27
side ≈ 5.20 feet

Now that we have the side length, we can calculate the perimeter of the square by multiplying the side length by 4 (since all sides of a square are equal):

Perimeter = 4 * side
Perimeter = 4 * 5.20 feet
Perimeter = 20.80 feet

Therefore, the perimeter of the square with an area of 27 square feet is 20.80 feet.
