Question 340685: OK heres another story problem that i got confused on and need help. Even my dad didn't get either of them. Oh, and the square in the problem is just a regular square: "In the square, the variable represents a positive whole number. Find the value of such that the area and the perimeter of the square are the same." Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! s = side length
Area = s^2
Perimeter = 4s
s^2 = 4s
s = 0 (ignore)
s = 4
--> Perimeter = 16
Area = 16
