Question

Area is always measured in

• A. given units
• B. $cm$
• C. $m$
• D. $\mathrm{sq}.\mathrm{units}$

Answer 1

The correct option is D

$\mathrm{sq}.\mathrm{units}$

According to the area formula, the unit will also be multiplied, for e.g., if we take the formula of area of square $=\mathrm{side}\times \mathrm{side}$

and let the side = $2cm$

so, area

$$\begin{gathered} =2cm\times 2cm \\ =2c{m}^2 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the area is always measured in $\mathrm{sq}.\mathrm{units}$.
