Answer:

12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The side length = sqrt 9 = 3

so the perimeter = 4*3 = 12.

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:  

12 units.

Here’s why:  

The formula for area of a square is:

[tex]A=s^2\\\\\boxed{\text{Key:}}\\\\s-\text{Side length given.}[/tex]

⸻⸻⸻⸻

  • We are given the area of the square, 9.
  • To find the side length of the square, required to get the perimeter, we would have to take the square root of 9.

Recall that the area of a square is the square of it's side length. [tex](s^2)[/tex]⸻⸻⸻⸻

[tex]\boxed{\text{Finding the side length of the square:}}\\\\\rightarrow S=9\\\\\sqrt{9}=3\\\\\rightarrow S=\boxed{3}^2[/tex]

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The side length of the square is 3 units.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The formula for perimeter of a square is:

[tex]P=4(s)\\\\\boxed{\text{Key:}}\\\\s-\text{Side Length}[/tex]

⸻⸻⸻⸻

  • We have previously calculated the side length of the square, which is 3.
  • We would have to multiply 3 by 4 to get the perimeter.

Recall that the perimeter of a square is 4 times the side length. [tex]4(s)[/tex].

⸻⸻⸻⸻

[tex]\boxed{\text{Finding the perimeter of a square:}}\\\\P=4(3)\\\\\boxed{P=12}[/tex]

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The perimeter of the square is 12 units.
