Question

The area of a square can be found using the equation A = s², where A is the area and s is the measure of one side of the square. Match the equation for how to solve for the side length of a square to its description. Drag the equation into the box to match the description. A square has an area of 144 in² s = 144 in.​s=144−−−√​ in.s = (144)² in.

Answer 1

`s=√(144)`

Explanation:

The area of a square can be found using the equation A = s²

A is the area and s is the measure of one side of the square

A = s²

To solve for side length 's' we need to remove square from side 's'

To remove square take square root on both sides

`√(A) = s`

A square has an area of 144 in²

144= s^2

take square root on both sides

`√(144) = s`

`s=√(144)`

Answer 2

the square root of the area would equal the length of a side

so square root of 144 = length of side
