Answer:


\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{13 \: ft}}}}}

Explanation:


\star{ \sf{ \: Area \: of \: a \: square \: rug \: ( \: A \: ) \: = \: 169 \: {ft}^(2) }}


\sf{ \underline{Finding \: the \: length \: of \: a \: square \: ( \: l \: )}}


\boxed{ \sf{Area \: of \: a \: square \: = \: {l}^(2) }}


\hookrightarrow{ \sf{169 = {l}^(2) }}


\hookrightarrow{ \sf{ {l}^(2) = 169}}


\hookrightarrow{ \sf{ \sqrt{ {(l)}^(2) } = √(169) }}


\hookrightarrow{ \text{length \: = \: 13 \: ft}}
