The area of a square is 36cm2. What are the dimensions of the square? You must show your work. Pls tell me what the dimensions of the square are

6 cm by 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the formula for area of a square is A = s² where A = area and s is the length of one side. We know that A = 36 so:

36 = s²

√36 = s

s = ±6

Note that s = -6 is an extraneous solution because you can't have a side length of -6, therefore the answer is s = 6 so the dimensions of the square are 6 cm by 6 cm.

The area of a square is found using the formula area = s^2, where s is the length of a side. ( a square has 4 equal sides).

Given the area you have:

36 = s^2

Find a by taking the square root of both sides:

S = sqrt(36)

S = 6

The square has a side length of 6 cm.
