Question from Danny, a parent: Is it possible to use a circumference measurement to find the area of a square when all 4 corners have a 1.75" radius? |
Hi Danny,
Since each side of a square has the same length, if you know the circumference (perimeter) then the length of each side is one-quarter of the circumference. The area of the square is then (side length) × (side length).
I don't know what you mean by "all 4 corners have a 1.75" radius".
