Answer:
5√3 ft = 8.8 ft (to the nearest tenth foot)
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of a square is A = s², where s is the length of any one of the sides of the square.
If A = 75 ft² = s²2, then the side length s is s = √75 ft.
Simplified, that comes out to s = (√25)(√3) = 5√3 ft.
To the nearest tenth of a foot, that comes out to s = 5(1.732) = 8.7 ft.
