Answer :
Answer:
89.44 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first define what perimeter and area are with respect to a square in 2-D coordinates
Square
A square is a 4-sided figure whose sides are all the same length
If we represent each side of the square with the letter a, then
- Area = a * a = a² (square units)
- Perimeter = a + a + a + a = 4a (units)
We are given that the area of the square is 500 square units
That means if each side is a, then
a² = 500
a = √500 units
Perimeter = 4 * a
= 4 * √500
= 89.44 units (to the nearest hundredth which is 2 decimal places)
