Answer 1

Given:

Area of the square = 625 sq. ft

Required: Side length of the square

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the side length of the square. Then the area of the square is

`A=a^2`

Equate it with 625.

`\begin{gathered} a^2=625 \\ a=√(625) \\ =25\text{ ft} \end{gathered}`

The third option is correct.

Final Answer: The side length of the square is 25 feet.
