Question

The area of a square is given by the expression s•s square inches, where s is the length of a side in inches. Write the expression as a power. Then find the area of a square with a side length of 7

Answer 1

This can also be written as A = s^2 and the area would be 49 with a side length of 7.

In order to find this, you can stick 7 into the area equation.

A = s^2

A = 7^2

A = 49
