Answer

We know that,

Perimeter of square = 4 × side

⇒ 24 = 4 × side

⇒ Side = 244\dfrac{24}{4} = 6 cm.

Steps of construction :

  1. Draw a line segment AB = 6 cm.

  2. Draw AP ⊥ AB.

  3. From AP cut off AD = 6 cm.

  4. With B as a center and radius 6 cm draw an arc.

  5. With D as center and radius 6 cm draw another arc cutting the former arc at C.

  6. Join BC and CD.

Perimeter = 24 cm. Construction of Polygons, Concise Mathematics Solutions ICSE Class 9.

Hence, ABCD is the required square.
