Question

A square piece of confetti has an area of 25 square millimeters. How long is each side?

Answer 1

The formula for the area of a rhombus is s^2=A. Plug in and solve:

s^2=25

*Take the square root of both sides*

s=5

Hope this helps!!

Answer 2

The side length is 5 mm

Explanation:

Since it is square, we know the area of a square is given by

A = s^2 where s is the side length of the square

25 = s^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt (25) = sqrt(s^2)

5 = s

The side length is 5 mm
