To determine the possible measure of the area of a square rug, you need to know that the area of a square is calculated by multiplying the length of one side by itself. Therefore, the area is expressed as side length squared (A = s^2).
For question 1, you are given the options: 18 square feet, 24 square feet, 36 square feet, and 48 square feet. By examining the options, the only one that can be expressed as the square of a whole number is 36 square feet. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
Moving on to question 2, you are asked to determine the length of one side of the rug based on the area given in the previous question (36 square feet). To find the side length, you need to take the square root of the area.
In this case, the square root of 36 is 6. So, the length of one side of the rug would be 6 feet. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
