Question: The area of a square is 324 square inches. What is the length of one side of the square?
The formula for finding area of squares is:

Length x Width

Squares have 4 sides, and all sides measure the same. If the area is 324 square units, that means the length and width are the same.

x X x=x2

X2=324

x squared(x²) is equal to 324. To find x, you have to do the opposite of squaring, which is finding the square root.

x2= 324 —> square root of 324=x

To find x, you have find the square root of 324.

Square root of 324 is 8

The length of one side is 18 inches
Check:
The formula for finding area is:

Length x Width

The length and width gotten was 18. Put that into the formula:

18 x 18

Multiply:

18 x 18= 324

That means the answer is correct. Your answer is 18 inches.

The length of one side of the square desktop is 18 inches.

Given the following data:

  • Area of square desktop = 324 square inches.

To find the length of one side of the square desktop:

In this exercise, you're required to find the length of one of the sides of a square desktop.  

Mathematically, the area of a square is calculated by using the following formula;

[tex]A = S^2[/tex]

Where;

  • S is the length of each sides of a square.

Substituting the given value into the formula, we have;

[tex]324 = S^2[/tex]

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

[tex]S = \sqrt{324}[/tex]

Length, S = 18 inches.

Therefore, the length of one side of the square desktop is 18 inches.
