Answer

The side length of the square is $6w+5$.

Work Step by Step

$36w^{2}+60w+25=$ ...write first and last terms as squares. $=(6w)^{2}+60w+(5)^{2}$ ...does middle term equal $2ab$? $60w=2\cdot(6w)\cdot(5)$ $=(6w)^{2}+2\cdot(6w)\cdot(5)+(5)^{2}$ ...write as the square of a binomial. $=(6w+5)^{2}$ The side length of the square is $6w+5$.
