Question

find the area and perimeter. round to the nearest hundredth at the end. 4 1/2 yd 4 1/2 yd perimeter = type your answer... area = type your answer...

Explanation:

Step1: Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction

$4\frac{1}{7}=\frac{4\times7 + 1}{7}=\frac{29}{7}$

Step2: Calculate the perimeter of the square

The formula for the perimeter of a square is $P = 4s$, where $s$ is the side - length.
$P=4\times\frac{29}{7}=\frac{116}{7}\approx16.57$

Step3: Calculate the area of the square

The formula for the area of a square is $A=s^{2}$.
$A = (\frac{29}{7})^{2}=\frac{841}{49}\approx17.16$

Answer:

Perimeter: \(16.57\), Area: \(17.16\)
