Step-by-step explanation:

a square has 4 identical sides.

so, when you have to "walk" around the perimeter of a square you have to go 4 times the same distance.

therefore

20 = 4×side length

side length = 20/4 = 5 in

it is a 5 in × 5 in square.

FYI a rectangle has 2 pairs of sides that are equally long inside their pair.

and so you have in this case a perimeter of

2×6 + 2×4 = 12 + 8 = 20 in
