Given Data

  • Height of the Room = 10 feet
  • Area of 4 sides of the room = 480 ft^2

If the area of 4 side = 480 ft^2

Area of 1 side will be = x

Cross multiply we have

x = 480/4

x = 120 ft^2

Let us find the length and width of the room

x = √120

x = 10.95 feet

hence Length = 10.95 feet

width = 10.95 feet

Height = 10 feet
