What is a Square?
A square is a four-sided polygon, also known as a quadrilateral, where all sides are of equal length and all angles are right angles (90 degrees). This unique property makes it easy to calculate its perimeter and area using simple formulas.
How to Calculate the Perimeter of a Square
The perimeter of a square is calculated by adding the lengths of all four sides. Since all sides are equal, the formula for calculating the perimeter is
Perimeter of Square = 4*Side
How to find Area of a Square
In addition to calculating the perimeter, understanding how to calculate the area of a square is equally important.
formuals of find area is = side^2
Where side is the length of one side of a square.
FAQS
Can I find the side length of square if I know the perimeter?
Yes! If you know the perimeter, you can find the side length using the formula side length(L) = p/4
What units can I use with the calculator?
You can use any unit of measurement (e.g., cm, m, inches) as long as you remain consistent throughout your calculations.
Is there a calculator for the area of a square?
Yes! Our Area of a Square Calculator is available to help you find the area using the same side length.
