Answer:

11 ft

Explanation:

Since the area of the square is 121 (and squares have all four sides the same length), the sides must be 11 feet. Because

11 × 11 = 121

You could show work by using an equation.

Area = s^2

121 = s^2

Square root both sides.

sqrt121 = sqrt(s^2)

11 = s

The side length is 11 feet.
