L = Length of a wire = 24 cm
a = The length of square side.
P = Perimeter of a square = 4a
Length of a wire = Perimeter of a square
L = P
24 cm = 4 a Divide both sides by 4
6 cm = a
a = 6 cm
A = Area of the square = a ^ 2
A = 6 ^ 2 = 36 cm ^ 2
a wire of length 24cm is bent to form a square.find the area of the square formed.
