Answer:

5 yards.

Explanation:

What is a square? A square is a 4-sided polygon with all equal sides.

so... the area of a square = 25 yard squared

Let each side have length s.

So Area = s * s = 25

take the square root of both sides of this equation to solve for s.

s = square root of 25 = 5 yards
