Finding the Side Length of a Square

The video tutorial teaches how to find the side length of a square given its area. It explains the concept of squaring a number and common mistakes like dividing the area by 2 or 4. The correct method involves finding a number that multiplies by itself to equal the area. Examples are provided, including estimating side lengths for non-perfect squares and comparing side lengths for different areas.
