A museum director wants to install a
skylight to illuminate an unusual piece of
art. It must be square and have an area of
300 square inches, with wood trim around
it. Can you calculate the trim that you
need? You can do this by using your
knowledge of squares and square roots.

Additional Example 2: Problem Solving Application
You want to sew a fringe on a square
tablecloth with an area of 500 square inches.
Calculate the length of each side of the
tablecloth and the length of fringe you will
need to the nearest tenth of an inch.
Understand the Problem
First find the length of a side. Then you can
use the length of a side to find the
perimeter, the length of fringe around the
tablecloth.

Make a Plan
The length of a side, in feet, is the number
that you multiply by itself to get 500. To be
accurate, find this number to the nearest
tenth. If you do not know a step-by-step
method for finding 500, use guess and
check.

Because 500 is between 222 and 232, the square root
of 500 is between 22 and 23.

Solve
The square root is between 22.3 and 22.4. To
round to the nearest tenth, look at the next
decimal place. Consider 22.35.
22.352 = 499.5225
Too low
The square root must be greater than 22.35, so
round up.
To the nearest tenth,
500 is about 22.4.
The length of each side of the table is about
22.4 in.

Solve
The length of a side of the tablecloth is 22.4
inches, to the nearest tenth of an inch. Now
estimate the length around the tablecloth.
4 • 22.4 = 89.6
Perimeter 4 • side
You will need about 89.6 inches of fringe.

Look Back
The length 90 inches divided by 4 is 22.5
inches. A 22.5-inch square has an area of
506.25 square inches, which is close to 500,
so the answers are reasonable.

Solve
To round to the nearest tenth, look at the next
decimal place.
Consider 15.85.
15.852 = 251.2225
The square root is lower than 15.85, so round
down.
To the nearest tenth,
250 is about 15.8.
The length of each side of the garden is
about 15.8 ft.

The length of a side of the garden is 15.8
feet, to the nearest tenth of a foot. Now
estimate the length around the garden.
