To calculate the perimeter of a square, one must sum up the lengths of all its sides. Given the equal length of all sides in a square, the formula can be simplified to four times the length of any one side. Hence, if we denote the length of one side as 'a', the perimeter (P) can be determined by the equation P = 4a.
