Question

What a square patch of fabric is 2.25 square inches. What is the side length of the patch?

Answer 1

Since, area of square patch of fabric = 2.25 square inches

Area of square of side 's' =
`s^2`

Since, area of square patch of fabric = 2.25 square inches

`2.25 = s^2`

`s = √(2.25)`

s = 1.5 inches

Therefore, the side length of the patch is 1.5 inches.
