To solve, simply use the formula for the area of a square. Thus,
As similarly stated in a prior problem in this set, if it helps you to envision smaller squares and adding them up for volume, thats perfectly ok! Some students also find success in knowing that area is two dimensions, and so you must multiply two variables together, in this case squaring the s.
Example Question #15 : How To Find The Area Of A Square
Find the area of a square with side length 4.
To solve, simply use the formula for the area of a square. Thus,
If you have trouble remembering the formula, draw out a picture to help understand what you are looking for. Add up all of the internal squares and you should come up with 16 as well.
