Answer:

Approximately 10.2 inches

Explanation:

The area of a square is given by the formula:


A=s^2

Where A is the area and s is the side length.

Since we already know that the area A is 105, substitute:


105=s^2

Now, take the square root of both sides:


s=√(105)

Use a calculator:


s\approx10.2470

So, the side length is approximately 10.2 inches.
