Example Questions

Example Question #944 : Basic Geometry

The perimeter of a square is $\frac{1}{4}$ . What is the length of one side of the square?

Possible Answers:

$\frac{1}{36}$

$\frac{1}{16}$

$\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{1}{8}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{1}{16}$

Explanation:

Recall how to find the perimeter of a square:

$\text{Perimeter}=4(\text{side length})$

By dividing both sides by , we can write the following:

$\text{Side length}=\frac{\text{Perimeter}}{4}$

For the square in question,

$\text{Side length}=\frac{1}{4}\div 4$

Dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.

$\text{Side length}=\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}$

$\text{Side length}=\frac{1}{16}$

Example Question #291 : Squares

Find the length of a side of a square that has an area of 1156 .

Possible Answers:

289

192

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Recall how to find the area of a square:

$\text{Area}=\text{side length}^2$

We can rewrite that equation into the following:

$\text{side length}=\sqrt{\text{Area}}$

Now, plug in the given area to find the side length of the square.

$\text{Side length}=\sqrt{1156}=34$

Example Question #292 : Squares

If the area of a square is 256 , find the length of one side of the square.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Recall how to find the area of a square:

$\text{Area}=\text{side length}^2$

We can rewrite that equation into the following:

$\text{side length}=\sqrt{\text{Area}}$

Now, plug in the given area to find the side length of the square.

$\text{Side length}=\sqrt{256}=16$

Example Question #293 : Squares

If the area of a square is 1369 , find the length of one side of the square.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Recall how to find the area of a square:

$\text{Area}=\text{side length}^2$

We can rewrite that equation into the following:

$\text{side length}=\sqrt{\text{Area}}$

Now, plug in the given area to find the side length of the square.

$\text{Side length}=\sqrt{1369}=37$

Example Question #294 : Squares

If the area of a square is 729 , find the length of one side of the square.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Recall how to find the area of a square:

$\text{Area}=\text{side length}^2$

We can rewrite that equation into the following:

$\text{side length}=\sqrt{\text{Area}}$

Now, plug in the given area to find the side length of the square.

$\text{Side length}=\sqrt{729}=27$

Example Question #295 : Squares

If the area of a square is 361 , find the length of one side of the square.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Recall how to find the area of a square:

$\text{Area}=\text{side length}^2$

We can rewrite that equation into the following:
