A couple wants to install a square mirror on their bathroom wall. The area of the square mirror is 720 square inches. To the nearest hundredth of an inch, what length of wood trim is needed to go around the entire mirror?

Respuesta :

Answer:

107.33 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the square more = length ^2

Area of the square mirror = 720 square inches

Area of the square more = length ^2

720 = length^2

Find the square root of both sides

√720 = √lenght^2

Length = √720

Length = 26.83281573 inches

Each length of the wood = 26.83281573 inches

There are 4 equal sides on the square mirror

Total length of the wood = 26.83281573 × 4

= 107.33126292 inches

Length of wood trim is needed to go around the entire mirror to the nearest hundredth = 107.33 inches
