In this video, Mr. J explains how to find the perimeter of a square. He starts by defining perimeter as the distance around a shape. Two examples are provided: one with a square having sides of 8 inches and another with sides of 11 meters. Mr. J demonstrates two methods for calculating the perimeter: adding all side lengths or using the formula 4 times the side length. He also explains the significance of tick marks and right angle symbols in identifying square properties.
