To find the side length of a square tile given its area, you can use the formula for the area of a square:
\[
\text{Area} = \text{side length}^2
\]
If the area is 49 square inches, you can set up the equation:
\[
\text{side length}^2 = 49
\]
To find the side length, take the square root of both sides:
\[
\text{side length} = \sqrt{49}
\]
Calculating the square root:
\[
\text{side length} = 7 \text{ inches}
\]
Thus, the side length of the tile is 7 inches.
\[
\text{Area} = \text{side length}^2
\]
