Question

each side of square measures 8.5cm.Find its area

Answer 1

Answer:

area = 72.25 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Side = 8.5 cm

Now area = s²

so, (8.5)²

= 72.25 cm²

Answer 2

Answer:

Hence the area of a square is $72.25cm^2.$

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the data given in the question,

It is given that, the side of a square is $8.5$ cm,

We have to find the area of a square,

Here we have to use the formula of area of a square,

The area is equal to side square, i.e. ${\text } A = a^2$

Where a is the side of the square,

Given: a= $8.5$ cm,

Substitute the value in the formula of area of a square, we get

${\text } A = (8.5)^2$

Squaring a number is to multiply the number by itself we get,

${\text } A = 8.5\times 8.5$

${\text } A = 72.25cm^2$

Hence the area of a square is $72.25cm^2.$
