Question

*20 POINTS*

A coffee table is shaped like a square and has an area of 22 square feet. Find the length of the side of the table to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answer 1

4.69 feet

Explanation:

If the table is a square, all the sides are equal and the area is the length of one side squared. A=l^2

The length must then be the square root of the area. The square root of 22 square feet is 4.6904 feet. Rounded to the nearest tenth, that is 4.69 feet.
