Question

Why Is Area Squared?

Answer 1

The area is always squared because it is a two-dimensional measurement between length and height. Therefore, the area is always expressed as square units.

Let us consider land with lengths and breadth be $a$ units and $b$ units respectively.

Area of the land $=\text{Length×Breadth}$

Area of the land $=a\times b$

Area of the land $=ab$ square units.
