if the square below has an area of 49 square inches what is the length of a side of the square?

Given: Area of square = 49 square inches
To find: length of side of the square
Solution:
Since, area of square = side x side
Thus,
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{side}\times side=49 \\ \text{side}^2=49 \\ \text{side}^2=(7)^2 \\ \text{side}=7\text{inches} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the length of the side of the square is 7 inches
