Determine the side length of a square with the area of 196cm2.
Prime Factorization:
196cm2 = area
14cm = side length
Side length = Square root
Square root is the number that
multiplied itself equals the
number you are looking for.

196 divided by 14 = 14
14 x 14 = 196

Questions from the text book:

3. The factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36. Use words and/or
diagrams to explain how you know which factor is the square root of 36.
6 is the square root of 36 because 6 is the number that multiplied by itself you get the number your looking for.

7. Determine the prime factorization for each number:

a) Not a perfect square b) Not a perfect square
c) A perfect square

12. Determine the square of each number:

The square of a number is the area.
To get the area of a square you have
to multiply side x side.
a) 3 = side
area = side x side
area = 3 x3
area = 9

b) 18 = side
area = side x side
area = 18 x 18
area = 324

14.Determine the side length for a square with an area of 900cm2.


area = side x side
area = 30 x 30
area = 900cm2
The side length of the square is 30cm2.
