Answer:

The length of the curtain is 10.625 feet

Explanation:

The length of the curtain to cover one side of the room depends on the shape of the room

Given a room shape of a square, we have;

Perimeter = 4 × Side length of the room

Length of the curtain = Side length of the room

Therefore;

Perimeter = 4 × Length of the curtain

42.5 feet = 4 × Length of the curtain

Length of the curtain = (42.5 feet)/4 = 10.625 feet

The length of the curtain = 10.625 feet.
