<p>The side length is given as √(400/4).</p>
39
<p>The side length is given as √(400/4).</p>
41
<p>Area of the square = side² = √100 x √100 = 10 x 10 = 100.</p>

<p>To find the square root, we need to find the sum of (400/4 + 0).</p>
68
<p>400/4 + 0 = 100 + 0 = 100, and then √100 = ±10.</p>
67
<p>400/4 + 0 = 100 + 0 = 100, and then √100 = ±10.</p>
69
<p>Therefore, the square root of (400/4 + 0) is ±10.</p>
