Question

Square floor tiles frequently have an area of 929 square centimeters. To the nearest tenth of centimeter, find the length of a side of one of these titles.

Answer 1

The area of a square = side x side or s²
so now work the other way around.

we already know that the area is 929 cm², so:

s² = 929 cm²
this means that
\[s= \sqrt{929}\]
s= 30,5
