Question: The area of a square is 324 square inches. What is the length of one side of the square?
The formula for finding area of squares is:
Length x Width
Squares have 4 sides, and all sides measure the same. If the area is 324 square units, that means the length and width are the same.
x X x=x2
X2=324
x squared(x²) is equal to 324. To find x, you have to do the opposite of squaring, which is finding the square root.
x2= 324 —> square root of 324=x
To find x, you have find the square root of 324.
Square root of 324 is 8
The length of one side is 18 inches
Check:
The formula for finding area is:
Length x Width
The length and width gotten was 18. Put that into the formula:
18 x 18
Multiply:
18 x 18= 324
That means the answer is correct. Your answer is 18 inches.
