Answer 2

The area is 156.25 sq cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

side of a square is 12.5cm

To find:

area of the square

Solution:

We use the formula to find the area of the square

Area of square= (side)²

or Area of square = side X side

Here, the side is 12.5 cm

Simply substituting the values in the formula

Area of square= (12.5)²

∴ Area of square= 12.5 X 12.5

Multiplying the values

∴ Area of square= 156.25

But Area is expressed in square units (sq)

Thus, the Area of square= 156.25 sq cm

Hence, the area of a square with a side of 12.5cm will be 156.25 sq cm
