Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a square is x^{2} =A, and we know that A is 25cm.

The x will be the length of the side of the square. We want to find x and to do that we have to take the square root of 25 and x. Which will give us 5 and the squared x will be cancelled to just and x.

$x^{2} =25$

$\sqrt{x} =\sqrt{25}$

x=5
