Question

Dharmesh has a square garden with a perimeter of 132 feet. Is the area of the garden greater than 1,000 square feet?

Answer 1

Answer: Yes. The area is 1089 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a square, all the sides are equal: L = W

Hence, the perimeter of a square = 4 × L

Perimeter = 4L

132 = 4L

132 ÷ 4 = L

33 = L = W

Area of a square with 33 feet sides = L × L = 33 × 33 = 1089

1089 > 1000
