---------------
Is that the area?

In a square all of the sides are equal, so length and width are the same.
...
Are you saying that the area is 72in%5E2?
a = s^2
72 = s^2
sqrt%2872%29+=+sqrt%28s%5E2%29
...
s = sqrt%2836%2A2%29
highlight_green%28s+=+6sqrt%282%29%29
both length and width are 6sqrt%282%29
