Answer:

26 ft

Explanation:

The area of a square is
$A=s^2$. Because of this, if we take the square root of the given area, we can determine the length of each side of the square:


$A=s^2$


$676=s^2$


$√(676)=√(s^2)$


$26=s$

Therefore, the length of the each side of the square is 26 ft.

a = l²

676 = l²

l = √676

l = 26

The length is 26 ft
