Area Formulas

Area is the size of a two-dimensional surface. It is defined as the amount of two-dimensional space occupied by an object. Area formulas have many practical applications in building, farming, architecture, science. The area of a shape can be determined by placing the shape over a grid and counting the number of squares that covers the entire space. For example, the area of a square can be calculated using
\(\begin{array}{l}a^{2}\end{array} \)
where a is the length of its side.
