a coast guard ship patrols an area of 125 square miles. The area the ship patrols is a square. About how long is each side of the square? Round your answer to the nearest mile.

Sagot :

A = s²

A = area
s = length of each side of the square

*take square root of both sides

s = √A

s = √125 sq. mi.

s = 11.18 miles

*rounded to nearest mile

s = 11 miles
