Question

Tristan wants to build a square garden in his backyard. If the garden is going to be 64 ft squared, how many feet of material will he need for the perimeter of the garden

Answer 1

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Tristan wants to build a square garden in his backyard.

Let the sides of the square garden be s.

If the garden is going to be 64 ft².

i.e. Area=64 ft²

and we know that

Area of square=Side²

So, s² =64

i.e. s=8 ft

We have to find the material needed for the perimeter of the garden

We know that perimeter of square=4×Side

                                                        = 4×8 ft

                                                        = 32 ft

Hence, material will he need for the perimeter of the garden is:

32 feet

Answer 2

$p = \ \sqrt{64} = 8$
$p = 8 \times 4 = 32$
$p = 32ft$
