Square area of 225 square feet what is the length of each side.

Step 1. Area A=s^2 for a square where s is the side.

Step 2. Take the square root to both sides of the equation

sqrt%28A%29=sqrt%28s%5E2%29=s

So

s=sqrt%28225%29=15

Step 3. ANSWER: The side is 15 ft for each side.

I hope the above steps were helpful.
