Squaring" means to multiply a number by itself. Squaring a positive number gets a positive result: (+5) × (+5) = +25. Squaring a negative number also gets a positive result: (−5) × (−5) = +25.

Answer:

This is because to square a number just means to multiply it by itself. For example, (-2) squared is (-2)(-2) = 4. Note that this is positive because when you multiply two negative numbers you get a positive result.
