Question

Find the area of a square whose side is:

(i) 5 cm
(ii) 4.1 cm
(iii) 5.5 cm
(iv) 2.6 cm

Answer 1

Area of a square = Side $\times$ Side
(i) Side of the square = 5 cm
Area of the square = 5 $\times$5 = 25 cm²
(ii) Side of the square = 4.1 cm
Area of the square = 4.1 $\times$ 4.1 = 16.81 cm^2
(iii) Side of the square = 5.5 cm
Area of the square = 5.5 $\times$ 5.5 = 30.25 cm^2
(iv) Side of the square = 2.6 cm
Area of the square = 2.6 $\times$ 2.6 = 6.76 cm²
