Answer:

The answer is C: 32 ft

Explanation:

If you take the square root of the area of 64 ft ^2, you get 8. then it asks what is the length needed for the frame as in the entire frame. So you just have to multiply 8 by 4 which is the number of sides. Also, I got this right on the edg quiz.

Answer:

8

Explanation:

Assuming, the canvas has the shape of a square. By the square area formula we can derive its side:


S=l^(2)\\64=l^(2)\\l=√(64)\\ l=8\: ft

Then Each side of the painting measures 8 feet, the length of frame must have 8 feet long, and the width is decided by the framer.
