Given Data:

The total area of the square is: A=169 square meters

Let 'a' be the length of a side of the square. The expression to calculate the area of a square is,


A=a^2

Substitute values in the above expression.


\begin{gathered} 169=a^2 \\ a^2=169 \\ a=\sqrt[]{169} \\ a=13\text{ meter} \end{gathered}

Thus, the length of one side of the square is 13 meter.
