Square Geometric Shape

s = side
a = area
p = perimeter |
Square Formulas:
A square is a special case of the rectangle where the length is equal to the width. All 4 sides, designated s, are of equal length. If only the side, area or perimeter of a square is known, you can calculate the other 2 unknowns.
Area of a square:
a = s2
Perimeter of a Square
p = 4*s
Side of a Square
s = √a
s = p/4
Square Calculations
- Given the length of a side find the area and perimeter
s is known; find a and p
- Given the area find the length of the sides and the perimeter
a is known; find s and p
- Given the perimeter find the length of the sides and the area
p is known; find s and a
