What is a square?

It is a polygon that has four sides. The sum of the internal angle is 360 degrees. In a square, opposite sides are parallel and all sides are equal and each angle is 90 degrees. And its diagonals are also equal and intersect at mid-point at right-angle.

A square field has an area of 10 square miles.

Let the side of the square be x.

We know that the area of the square will be

[tex]\rm (Side)^2 = Area[/tex]

Then we have

[tex]\rm x^2 = 10\\\\\rm x \ = \sqrt{10}\\\\\rm x \ = 3.162[/tex]

The approximate length, to the nearest thousandth, of one side of this field is 3.162 miles. Then the correct option is C.
