Given, the area of a square, A=225 square units.

The equation of the area of a square is,


A=a^2

Here, a is the length of a side of the square.

Put A=225 in the above equation and find a.


\begin{gathered} 225=a^2 \\ \sqrt[]{225}=a \\ 15=a \end{gathered}

Therefore, the length of a side of the square is 15 units.
