Question: 598
9. If the area of a square is equal to its perimeter, what is the length of one side?
- A. 1
- B. 2
- C. 4
- D. 8
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Since the question asks for a specific value, use PITA to answer this question, starting with (C). If the side length of a square is 4, its perimeter is 16 because 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 16 and its area is also 16 because 42 = 16. Since those are equal, stop here. The correct answer is (C).
