Isabel Harmon · Answer 1

First, if the frame is square then it has equal-length sides. Find the measurement of the sides.

s² = 64

s = √64

s = 8

The first dimension is 8 * 8

Second, if the frame is rectangle, it would have length and width. For example the length is 16 inches.

w = 64/l

w = 64/16

w = 4

The second dimension is 16 * 4

There are more possibilities if the frame is rectangle, but i choose the simplest dimension.

So, the answers are 8 * 8 and 16 * 4
