You have 9 tiles. You want to fill a square space.
If you arrange them to fill a square space … what is the length of each side?
The length of each side is 3. 3 X2 = 9 HINT: The length of the side is the square root of the area of the square. X = 9 3 = 9
9 9 9 Sally wants to make a quilt with pieces of fabric. She wants the quilt to be square so all sides will be the same. This is the equation for a perfect square X2 = Total Number X = Total Number
How long will each side be if Sally places her 9 pieces in a perfect square? x2 = 9 or x = 9 hint: x = length of side x = 9 x =
