how do i solve?

Question

If the area of a square is 19.08 , the measure of each side of the square is  in. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answer 1

Hi Jason,

when you have an area of square it means you have (side)^2 because Area = ( side)^2

now, for finding the side, it is enough take a square root of area.

side = √19.08 = 4.3680 inches

after rounding to the tenth it is 4.4 inches .

I hope it is useful,
