To find the area of a square, you multiply the length of one side by itself. This is because all four sides of a square are equal in length. The formula is:
Area = side × side
Let’s go through each problem one by one.
---
Problem 1:
Side = 2 ft
Area = 2 × 2 =
4 ft²
Problem 2:
Side = 12 cm
Area = 12 × 12 =
144 cm²
Problem 3:
Side = 22 m
Area = 22 × 22 =
484 m²
Problem 4:
Side = 6 yd
Area = 6 × 6 =
36 yd²
Problem 5:
Side = 11 in
Area = 11 × 11 =
121 in²
Problem 6:
Side = 10 yd
Area = 10 × 10 =
100 yd²
Problem 7:
Side = 7 mm
Area = 7 × 7 =
49 mm²
Problem 8:
Side = 1.5 yd
Area = 1.5 × 1.5 =
2.25 yd²
All calculations have been double-checked for accuracy.
Final Answer:
1. 4 ft²
2. 144 cm²
3. 484 m²
4. 36 yd²
5. 121 in²
6. 100 yd²
7. 49 mm²
8. 2.25 yd²
