Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]s=8.1\ in[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a square is

[tex]A=s^{2}[/tex]

Solve for s

[tex]s=\sqrt{A}[/tex]

where

s is the length side of the square

A is the area of the square

In this problem we have

[tex]A=65\ in^2[/tex]

substitute in the formula

[tex]s=\sqrt{65}[/tex]

[tex]s=8.06\ in[/tex]

Round to the nearest tenth of a inch

[tex]s=8.1\ in[/tex]
