In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

data:

(x + 10)² = 256

Step 02:

original dimensions:

equation:

x = side measure (original photo)


\begin{gathered} (x\text{ + 10\rparen}^2\text{ = 256 } \\ \\ \sqrt{(x+10)\placeholder{⬚}^2}=√(256) \\ \\ x+10=16 \\ \\ x\text{ = 16 - 10} \\ \\ x\text{ = 6} \end{gathered}

The answer is:

6 inches by 6 inches
