Area of a square:

A=s^2

You are given the area so:

160=s^2

solve for s

So I agree with your answer.

It's 80 cause 80 x 2 =160

Answered by Engineer gaming
It is 40 because there are 4 sides with 160 square feet in the model and what does 40 x 4 equal? 160

They changed up the answers on the test and put 13 as one of the answers. 13 is the correct answer.

Well then what's the rest of them if possible? I have been scouring jiskha and most of the full answers have too many downvotes to be trustworthy.
