The area of the square is 48 cm2. What is the perimeter of this square?

It is known from the condition that the area of the square is 48 cm ^ 2. In order to find the perimeter of a square, we first recall the formula.

The perimeter of any geometric figure is the sum of the lengths of all its sides.

Since all sides of a square are equal, we can write down a formula to find the perimeter of a square:

P = 4a.

And to find the area of a rectangle, use the formula:

S = a ^ 2;

Find the side of the square:

a ^ 2 = 48;

a = √48 = 4√3 cm.

Find the perimeter:

P = 4 * a = 4 * 4√3 = 16√3 cm.

Answer: 16√3 cm.
