Euclid Park is shaped like a square, with side length s, and has an area of 121 square kilometers. This equation shows the area of the park: s^2=121

What is the perimeter of the park?

A. 44 km
B. 121 km
C. 11 km
D. 22 km

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option A - 44 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Euclid Park is shaped like a square, with side length s, and has an area of 121 square kilometers. This equation shows the area of the park: [tex]s^2=121[/tex]

To find : What is the perimeter of the park?

Solution :

The equation shows the area of the park is represented by

[tex]s^2=121[/tex]

So, the side of the square is

[tex]s=\sqrt{121}[/tex]

[tex]s=11[/tex]

The perimeter of the park is [tex]P=4\times s[/tex]

[tex]P=4\times 11[/tex]

[tex]P=44[/tex]

Therefore, The perimeter of the park is 44 km.

So, Option A is correct.

Answer:

44 km

Explanation:

The question is asking for the perimeter.

s = side length

s = 11

So we now know the side length of the square. And because all sides of a square have equal length, we know that each side is going to equal 11. Meaning all you have to do is add 11 + 11 + 11 + 11  (11 x 4) and we get our final answer of 44 km.
