Answer: 15 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Area of square shaped lawn = 224.9 ft²
Measurement closest to side length of the lawn :
Since the length is square shaped ;
Area of square formula = a²; where a = side length of the square
Area = a²
224.9 ft² = a²
Take the square root of both sides
√224.9ft² = √a²
14.996666 ft = a
a = 14.996666 ft
a = 15 ft
Hence, the side length of the lawn is closest to 15 feets
