8 inches.
The area of a square with sides of length x is
Area = x².
So 64 = x².
Take square roots of both sides => x = 8 inches.
Hope this helps.

i imagine Mystere might want to be impressive of you're searching for for the fringe, besides the indisputable fact that it appears like the problem is speaking about the area. X = the unique length of a side of the sq. x+5 = the hot length (x+5)^2 = sixty 4 because the area of a sq. is length squared x+5 = 8 x = 3

That would be the square root of 64 or 8 inches.

8 inches.
The area of a rectangle of any kind, including a square, is L (length) x H (height).
Since we know it is not a rectangle, but rather a square, where each side has an equal length, we need to find the one number that when multiplied by itself yields 64. The only number that does that is 8.
8x8=64
So, your length for each side is 8 inches.

Well, that would be the square root of 64. In other words, 8.

Just take the square root of the area to get the edge length. The answer is 8 inches. (But metric units are better.)

8 inches. 8x8=64
To get square footage you multiply 2 length x height
