A square has an area of 576 square inches. How long is each side in feet?

The area of this square is said to be 576 square inches.

The formula for the area of a square is the length of one side squared.

Let's use l to represent the side length.

This means l^2 = 576.

To find l, find the square root of both sides.

√576 = 24

The length of each side of the square is 24 inches.

But the question is asking for it in feet.

12 inches = 1 foot so 24 inches = 2 feet

This means each side of the square is 2 feet long.

Answer:

2 feet
