Simplifying Courtyard Dimensions

An architect is designing a square courtyard with a total area represented by the expression 36x2y236x^2y^2. To determine the side length of the courtyard, the architect must simplify the expression 36x2y2\sqrt{36x^2y^2}. In a brief response, provide the final simplified expression for the side length and identify the specific rule used to determine the exponents for the variables xx and yy during this simplification.
