Since you know the area of a square is lengh times width,

you can do…

length x width= 31684

but since you know that length=width

it is just length squared=31684

so,

length= square root of 31684

at the end length of each side of a square are the the same so, if you know one then you know all of the others,

so,

length of each side in this square is=178 meters

Answer:

178 m

Explanation:

The area of a square is the square of one of its sides, so the square root of the area is the length of one of its sides.

√31684 = 178
