horsena [70]

Answer: 20 feet by 20 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that $x$ is the original measure of one side. Since it is a square, all its sides are equal.

2. Therefore, to solve the problem you only need to solve for $x$ , as you can see below:

- You have that:

$(a-b)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2}$

- Then, you obtain the following quadratic equation:

$(x-8)^{2} =144\\x^{2}-2(x)(8)+8^{2}=144\\x^{2}-16x-80=0$

- Apply the Quadratic formula to solve it:

$x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}\\a=1\\b=-16\\c=-80$

- Then, you obtain:

$x_1=20\\x_2=-4$

3. The dimensions cannot be negative, therefore, the answer is: 20 feet by 20 feet.
