A square piece of sheet metal has sides that are 3 meters long. What is the sheet metal's perimeter?
To find the perimeter of a square, you need to add up the lengths of all its sides. Given that each side of the square sheet metal is 3 meters long, you can find the perimeter by multiplying the length of one side by 4, since a square has four equal sides.
So, the sheet metal's perimeter can be calculated as follows:
Perimeter = 4 * Side length
Substituting the given value of the side length, we get:
Perimeter = 4 * 3 meters
Simplifying the expression:
Perimeter = 12 meters
Therefore, the perimeter of the square sheet metal is 12 meters.
well, how many sides does it have?
