Question

Heather is putting together a square bulletin board for her new room, and the area of the bulletin board is 196 cm^2.

a.) Find the side length of each side.

b.) Find the total distance around the bulletin board.

*You need to answer both a and b! Don't forget units*

Answer 1

the side length is 14cm. 14x14 = 196
total distance would be 14x4 or 14+14+14+14=56cm

Answer 2

I think that the answer a would be timesing them and b would be counting all around the numbers
