Perimeter = Same as 14 sides of a square
= y cm

1 side of square = y/14 cm

Area of figure = total area of 8 squares

= 8 x side length x side length
= y cm²

So y cm² = 8 × y/14 cm × y/14 cm

y = 2y²/49

49y = 2y²

2y² - 49y = 0

y(2y - 49) = 0

y = 0 (rejected since length is positive)

or

2y - 49 = 0
2y = 49
y = 49/2 = 24½
