3. Shavonne is wearing a flat, medal pendant in the shape of a square. The area of the pendant is 10 cm². What are the dimensions (length and width) of the pendant?
To find the dimensions of the square pendant, we first need to calculate the length of each side of the square.
The area of a square is given by the formula:
Area = side^2
10 = side^2
Taking the square root of both sides, we get:
Side = √10 ≈ 3.16 cm
Therefore, each side of the square pendant is approximately 3.16 cm long.
