Question
Suppose the area of a square is 64 sq.cm, find the side length.
- 8
- 6
- 5
- 7
Hint:
A square is a rectangle whose all sides are equal.
The correct answer is: 8
Here, it is given that the area of a square is 64 cm².
We have, Area of square = 64 cm²
=> (side)² = 64
=> side = √64 = 8cm.
Hence, the correct option is A.
Since, the area of a rectangle is length multiplied by breadth. So, area of square is (side)² as its length and breadth are equal.
