What is 11 squares?

  1. A square is a geometric shape that has four sides of equal length and four right angles.
  2. The area of a square is calculated by multiplying the length of one side by itself (squared).
  3. The perimeter of a square is calculated by adding the length of all four sides together.
  4. In a unit square, each side measures one unit of length, and the area is also one square unit.
  5. A square can be divided into four congruent right triangles.
  6. The diagonal of a square divides it into two congruent isoceles right triangles.
  7. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a square is 360 degrees.
  8. Perimeter of a square = 4 x length of one side.
  9. The Pythagorean theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2, can be used to find the length of the diagonal of a square if the side length is known.
  10. The regular polygons with the greatest number of sides that can be inscribed in a unit square are octagons, with eight sides.
  11. Squares can be found in many real-life objects, such as tiles, windows, and computer screens.
