Question

how do you find the side of an area of 361

Answer 1

side of what?

Answer 2

what is the area you are looking at?

Answer 3

square

Answer 4

the formula of a square is:
a = s^2
S0 if you know the area
361 = s^2
Can you do it from there?

Answer 5

s^2 could you explain that part?

Answer 6

s^2 means s x s

Answer 7

s^2 means you're multiplying 2 of the same sides, and because it's a square, you're multiplying the sides with eachother.

in order to find one side you would have to take the square root of 361.

Answer 8

but if:
361 = s^2
What do you need to do to get the ^2 to the other side?
