Question

A square has an area of 82 cm. The length of its side is

Answer 1

Hello!

Formula for the Area of a Square:

`\bf{A=a^(2)`

A = area

a = the length of a side of a square

Since we have the area, all we have to do to determine the side length is take the square root of both sides:

`\bf{√(82) =\sqrt{a^(2) }`

Solve:

`\bf{√(82) =a`

`\bf{a=√(82)`

`\bf{a=9.06}`

Final Answer:

a≈9.06

I hope it helps you.

Good luck and enjoy your day!
