Question

Write and solve an equation to find the unknown side length x (in inches).

Answer 1

The value of side length x is equal 6.05 in

Perimeter of a Square

The perimeter of a square is given as the sum of the total sides in the square or 4 multiplied by the side length of the square since they all have equal sides.

Mathematically, this can be written as

$P = 4 *L\\P = 4l$

• L = side length

In this given question, the side length is equal to x and the perimeter of the square is given as 24.2in.

Let's substitute the values

$P = 4L\\24.2 = 4L\\but l = x\\24.2 = 4x\\x = 6.05in$

The side length of the square is equal to 6.05in
