Find the area and the perimeter of this square
2√3x

The perimeter of a square is equal to 4 times the side length.

=4

P

=

4

s

where

P

is the perimeter and

s

is the side length of the square.

If the side length of the square is 3−2

3

x

−

2

units, then let =3−2

s

=

3

x

−

2

The perimeter would be:

=4(3−2)

P

=

4

(

3

x

−

2

)

=4(3)−4(2)

P

=

4

(

3

x

)

−

4

(

2

)

=12−8

P

=

12

x

−

8

Therefore the perimeter of the square is: 12−8

12

x

−

8

units.

A square is an equilateral rectangle.

So, we know that, for a rectangle,

=2+2

P

=

2

l

+

2

w

For a square,

=

l

=

w

so,

=4=4

P

=

4

l

=

4

w

Therefore,

=4(3−2)

P

=

4

(

3

x

−

2

)

=12−4

P

=

12

x

−

side length is 3x-2

each of the four sides is the same length

P = 4(3x-2) factored form

P = 12x - 8 expanded form
