Question

Miranda bought a square frame that has an area of 30 square inches what is the approximate side lenght of the frame

Answer 1

Answer:

The side length of the square frame is 5.5 inches approximately.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area of the square frame bought by Miranda= 30 square inches

To find:

Side length of the frame=?

Solution:

we know that,

$\text{{Area of a square}} = \text{( side length )}}^2$

Here, area of square = 30 square inches .

$\text{( side length )}}^2 = 30$ square inches

Side length =$\sqrt30$ inches

Side length = 5.4772 inches

Answer 2

Area of a square equals side squared

(A = s²)

30 = s²

√30 = s

You can use a calculator to find out that √30 ≈ 5.48

or you can use estimation (√25 < √30 < √36) which means that √30 is between 5 and 6.
