The perimeter of a square is the total of its four sides: P = 4 (s)
The area of the square is the square of its sides: A = s²
If Perimeter is (2x - 48) meters, its side is:
Side = (2x-48) meters
4
Side = 2(x-24) meters
4
Side = x/2 - 12 meters
The expression that represents the area of the square, A=s² is:
A = (x/2 - 12)²
