Answer:

Increase in the length of one side = 3.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Yossi has garage whose area is 280 ft²

After rebuilt their is increment in area by 50%

New Area = 280 × 150% = 420 ft²

Also we know that Area of Square = (Length) × (Length)

⇒ Length of Newly built garage = √420 = 20.5 ft

and Length of Originally garage = √280 = 16.7 ft

⇒ Increase in the length of one side = 20.5 - 16.7 = 3.8 ft
