Question

A rectangle is formed by placing two identical squares side by side

Answer 1

The perimeter of one square is 20 cm.

explanation: since the rectangle can be divided into two squares, we can conclude that the area of one square is 25 cm^2 because 50 / 2 = 25. the square root of 25 is 5, so one side length of the square is 5 cm. multiply that by 4 (because there’s 4 sides) and you get 20 cm.
