A square garden has an area of 147 square feet.(2 points)
What is the closest approximate length of one of the sides?
What is the approximate perimeter of the garden to find out how much fencing you would need to go around it?
To find the length of one side of the square garden, we need to find the square root of the area.
√147 ≈ 12.124...
So, the approximate length of one side is 12.124 feet.
The perimeter of a square is found by multiplying the length of one side by 4.
Perimeter = 12.124 * 4 = 48.496...
So, the approximate perimeter of the garden is 48.496 feet.
