Let x = length of each side of a square
\n" ); document.write( "area = $\"x%5E2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "perimeter = 4x
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2+=+77+%2B+4x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2+-+4x+-+77+=+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28x+-+11%29%28x+%2B+7%29+=+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "x = 11. disregard the negative root
\n" ); document.write( "The length of each side is $\"highlight%2811%29\"$ . \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
