Perimeter: P = 4(a) = 4 × 2 = 8

To find the area:

Perimeter 
÷ 4 (since a square has 4 sides) = 2
Length of one side of a square = 2

Formula of area: length × width = area

Area : 2 × 2 = 4

The area of the square is 4

If the perimeter is 8 feet, then each side of the square is 2 feet.
That is because a square has 4 congruent sides and 8/4 = 2.

The area of a square is side times side.

The area of this square is 2*2 = 4 square feet. -->
