A Square Rug Has An Area Of 256 Square Feet What Is The Perimeter Of The Rug class=

Sagot :

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sqrt{256}[/tex] = 16 (length of each side)

A square (rug) has 4 sides.

Add to find perimeter:

16 + 16 + 16 + 16

= 64

Answer: 8ft

Step-by-step explanation:

4A= 256

4A/4     =    256/4

A = 64

A = a²

64 = 4²

a² = 64

a = ±√64

a = ±8

∴a = ±8

Hence, the length of a side of each rug is 8ft.
