Question

what is the answer A square patio has an area of 126 square feet. How long is each side of the patio to the nearest tenth? Each side of the patio is approximately feet long.

Answer 1

All the sides of a square are the same length, so all we need to do is take the square root of the area.

√126 = 11.2249721...

How to round:

5 and above, round up

4 and below, round down

11.2249721... = 11.2

Therefore, the side length of the square is 11.2 feet.

Best of Luck!
