Answer:
Therefore Perimeter of a Square,
1. [tex]Perimeter =(s+3)+(s+3)+(s+3)+(s+3) =4s+12[/tex]
2. [tex]Perimeter=4(s+3)=4s+12[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The measure of one side of a square is (s + 3) inches long,
∴ length of a side of square is (s+3) inches
Let the Perimeter of a Square be "P"
To Find:
P =?
Solution:
Square:
For a Square all sides are EQUAL.
Perimeter of Square:
Sum of all the sides.
It's Formula is given by,
[tex]Perimeter=4\times (side)[/tex]
side = length of a side of square
Substituting the values we get
[tex]Perimeter =4(s+3)[/tex]
Applying Distributive Property A(B+C)=AB+AC we get
[tex]Perimeter =4s+4\times 3\\Perimeter=4s+12[/tex]
Both the Expression is Equivalent
Also you can get it by adding sides 4 times ,
[tex]Perimeter =(s+3)+(s+3)+(s+3)+(s+3)=4s+12[/tex]
Therefore Perimeter of a Square,
1. [tex]Perimeter =(s+3)+(s+3)+(s+3)+(s+3)=4s+12[/tex]
2. [tex]Perimeter=4(s+3)=4s+12[/tex]
