<h3>What is a square?</h3>A square is a regular quadrilateral, this explains that it has four equal sides and four equal angles.
It can also be defined as a rectangle with two equal-length adjacent sides.
The properties of a square are:
- All it's Interior angles are equal to 90 degrees
- The four sides of a square are congruent or equal
- Opposite sides of a square are parallel to each other
- Diagonals bisect at 90 degrees
- The two diagonals are equal to each other or congruent
The formula for area of a square is given as;
Area = a ²
Where 'a' is the length of its side
From the information given;
a = 6 units
Now, substitute the values
Area = 6²
Area = 36 units square
