Question

The area of a square can be found using the equation A=s^2, where A is the area and s is the measure of one side of the square. Match the equation for how to solve for the side length of a square to it's description. A square has an area of 60 in^2. ---------A) s = √60^2 in.B) s = √60 in.C) s = 60^2 in. D) s = 60 in.

Answer 1

Given:

The equation for area is:

$A=s^2$

Where,

$\begin{gathered} A=\text{ Area of square} \\ \\ s=\text{ Side of square} \end{gathered}$

If the area of 60 then the sides is.

Find the side length of the square.

Use the formula for area is:

$\begin{gathered} A=s^2 \\ \\ 60=s^2 \\ \\ s=\sqrt{60} \end{gathered}$

So side is sqr root 60.
