5.4 HW - Properties of Squares

Front

What is a square?

Back

A square is a quadrilateral with all four sides of equal length and all four angles measuring 90 degrees.

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a square?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a square is 360 degrees.

Front

If one angle of a square is 90 degrees, what are the measures of the other angles?

Back

All other angles are also 90 degrees.

Front

What is the relationship between the diagonals of a square?

Back

The diagonals of a square are equal in length, bisect each other at right angles, and are perpendicular to each other.

Front

How do you find the length of a side of a square if the area is given?

Back

To find the length of a side, take the square root of the area.

Front

What is the formula for the perimeter of a square?

Back

The perimeter of a square is given by the formula P = 4s, where s is the length of a side.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a square?

Back

The area of a square is given by the formula A = s², where s is the length of a side.

Front

If the length of a side of a square is doubled, how does the area change?

Back

If the length of a side is doubled, the area increases by a factor of four.

Front

What is the measure of each angle in a square?

Back

Each angle in a square measures 90 degrees.

Front

How do you calculate the length of a diagonal in a square?

Back

The length of a diagonal can be calculated using the formula d = s√2, where s is the length of a side.
