Answer 1

25 feet each.  All you have to do is divide the perimeter by how many sides.

Answer 2

Answer:

25 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The perimeter of a square is 100 feet .

            The area is 625 square feet .

To Find: What is the length of each side?

Solution:

Let the side of square be x

Formula of perimeter of square = $4 \times side$

Perimeter of square =  $4 \times x$

The perimeter of a square is 100 feet .

So,  $100=4 \times x$

$\frac{100}{4}=x$

$25=x$

Area of square = $Side^2$

                        = $(25)^2$

                        = $625 ft^2$

The calculated area is same as the given area.

Hence the side of the square sis 25 feet.
