Answer :
We start with the equation for the area of a square:
[tex]$$
p^2 = 169
$$[/tex]
where [tex]$p$[/tex] is the side length of the square.
To solve for [tex]$p$[/tex], we take the square root of both sides of the equation:
[tex]$$
p = \sqrt{169}
$$[/tex]
Since [tex]$\sqrt{169} = 13$[/tex], we find that the side length of the square is:
[tex]$$
p = 13 \text{ centimeters.}
