Squares have equal side lengths, so that is why the question is only asking for one side length.
The area of a square is calculated using the formula s^2, where s stands for a side of the square.
To find the length of one side of the park, you can take the given area (3,600 m^2) and square root it. This would give you the length of one side of the square park.
√3,600 = 60
The length of one side of the park is 60 meters.
What's the difference between A) and C)??
There should be an E) because the correct answer would be in either of these forms:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
WX = 33
(x, y) = (2, 10)
Step-by-step explanation:
The hash marks tell you WX is a midline, so has the measure of the average of the two bases.
WX = (PQ +SR)/2 = (27 +39)/2 = 66/2
WX = 33
__
The hash marks also tell you ...
PW = WS
y +4x = 18 . . . . . . substitute the given expressions
and also
QX = XR
2y +x = 22 . . . . . substitute the given expressions
__
If you solve the first equation for y, you get ...
y = 18 -4x
Substituting that into the second equation gives ...
2(18-4x) +x = 22
36 -7x = 22 . . . . . . . simplify
14 = 7x . . . . . . . . . . . add 7x-22 to both sides
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7
y = 18 -4(2) = 10 . . . find y using the above relation
The values of x and y are 2 and 10, respectively.

My favorite "quick and dirty" way to solve a set of linear equations is using a graphing calculator. It works well for integer solutions.
