Question:
The area of a square is 121 square units. What is the length of its sides?
Square- Area and Side Length:
Squares are quadrilaterals in which all of the four sides are identical in measure but the opposite side lengths must be parallel and equal in measure.
The length connecting the opposite vertices of a square is called the length of the diagonal.
The area of a square is computed as per the formula written below-
$$A = x^{2} $$
here {eq}x {/eq} is the side length of the square
{eq}A {/eq} is the area
The side length of a square is the measure between the two nearby (adjacent) vertices of a square.
The side length of a square is basically equal to the square root of the area of the square.
