Question

How do you find a area of a square?

Answer 1

Answer:

To find the area of a rectangle multiply its height by its width. For a square you only need to find the length of one of the sides (as each side is the same length) and then multiply this by itself to find the area.

Answer 2

The area of a square is length times width:

Area = length x width

^^^This is the same for a rectangle too

The only difference is that the length of all the sides of a square are equal to each other, so to find the area of a square you are essentially multiplying on side with it self

Look at the example below
