Write and solve a proportion to find the perimeter of a square when its side length is 12.
Ty
Its 12 points

Answer:
48
Step-by-step explanation:
setup a ratio using the length and perimeter then reduce it.
[tex] \frac{2}{8} [/tex]
reduces to
[tex] \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
the numerator is length and denominator is perimeter. setup the proportion
[tex] \frac{1}{4} = \frac{12}{p} [/tex]
cross multiply
[tex]1p = 48[/tex]
1 times p = p, so the answer is 48
