just in case we didnt know what a square was?

haha good one

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

ok you have the area = 17 and area is given by \(A=x^2\) where x is the length of one side so we have \(17=x^2\) which implies \(x=\pm\sqrt{17}\) but since its a length we only take the positive root thus length \(=x=\sqrt{17}\)
