Michelle wishes to build a square pool in her backyard. She has saved enough to build a pool with the area of 150 square feet. W

hat is the length of each side of her pool? (Recall that the area of a square is 2003-04-01-00-00_files/i0200000.jpg, where l is the length of a single side).

When it comes to finding the area of spaces, you must determine its shape. In this case, the shape of the pool is a square. From there, we will use the formula to find the area of a square.

Area = (side)^2

Since the square of the square's side is its total area, then if vice versa, we have to find the square root of the area to find the length. Thus,

Length = √150 = 5√6 = 12.25 ft
