A square reflecting pool has an area of 183.84 square meters. What is the approximate perimeter of the reflecting pool?

Area = length x width

since its a square and squares have their lengths and widths the same, we will say that x represents length and width.

so ...

area=x*x

area=x^2

we know that the area of the pool is 183.84 square meters so plug that into area

183.84=x^2

solve for x by square rooting both sides

you will get x = ... (square root of 183.84)

so that is x value is your width and length.

therr are 4 sides on a square so multiple x by 4 to get perimeter.
