If patio is square it means that area of if is A = a 2 where a is one side Now we can substitute A=200 and solve eq a 2 = 200 a= 200 a=14.1421 Now we are rounding to the nearest tenths a=14.1 because next number is 4 and is less then 5. The result is 14.1
The length of each side of the square patio is approximately 14.1 feet. This is calculated by taking the square root of the area, 200 square feet, and rounding the result to the nearest tenth. The calculation shows that a = 200 ≈ 14.1421 feet .
