Find the perimeter of a square if its area is equal to the area of a rectangle with sides of 12 cm and 3 cm.

Sкв = Sпр;

a = 12 cm;

b = 3 cm;

Pkv -?

Decision:

Spr = a * b = 12 * 3 = 36 (cm ^ 2).

Sq = 36 cm ^ 2.

Pkv = 4c, where c is the side of the square.

Skv = s ^ 2;

36 = c ^ 2;

c = 6 and c = -6, since the length of the square cannot be with a minus sign, then c = 6 cm.

Pkv = 4 * 6 = 24 (cm).

Answer: Pkv = 24 cm.
