Asquare playground has an area of 175 m2. what is the approximate length of each side of the playground? round your answer to the nearest meter

We know that the area of a square = side ²

Therefore, for a known area A, the side length is
side = √ (area)
= √ (175) 
= 13.2288  (to 4 places of decimals).

Best answer that i found on yahoo ok   set :   x= length of 2nd piece in cm  x- 3= length of 1st piece in cm  x-4= length of 3rd piece in cm  then since you know they all came from the 20 cm ribbon you add them together and set them equal to 20x+ x-3 +x-4 = 20  3x - 7= 20  3x= 27  x= 9  the shortest piece is the third piece which is x- 4  x-4  9-4 = 5  the length of the smallest piece is 5 cm.  the other lengths are  9 cm  6 cm
