Question

10. The area of Kaitlyn's square garden is 175 square feet. What is the measure of each side
of the garden to the nearest tenth? Support your answer.

Answer 1

Each side of garden measures 13.2 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Area of Kaitlyn's garden = 175 square feet

As the garden is in square shape, each side will have equal length.

Let,

a be the length of each side.

Area of square garden = A = a²

$a^2=175$

Taking square roots on both sides

$\sqrt{a^2}= \sqrt{175} \\a=13.22 \ feet$

Rounding off to nearest tenth,

Length of each side = 13.2 feet

Each side of garden measures 13.2 feet.
