Example Question #52 : Squares
Find the area of a square with a length of 12in.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
where l is the length and w is the width of the square.
Now, we know the length of the square is 12in. Because it is a square, all sides are equal. Therefore, the width is also 12in. So, we can substitute.
Example Question #61 : Squares
Find the area of a square with a width of 5in.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
where l is the length and w is the width of the square.
Now, we know the width of the square is 5in. Because it is a square, all sides are equal. Therefore, the length is also 5in. So, we can substitute. We get
Example Question #61 : Squares
Find the area of a square with a length of 9in.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
where l is the length and w is the width of the square.
Now, we know the length of the square is 9in. Because it is a square, all sides are equal. Therefore, the width is also 9in. So, we get
Example Question #151 : Geometry
Find the area of a square that has a width of 13in.
To find the area of a square, we will use the following formula:
where l is the length and w is the width of the square.
Now, we know the width of the square is 13in. Because it is a square, all sides are equal. Therefore, the length is also 13in.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get

Example Question #322 : Ssat Middle Level Quantitative (Math)
Give the area of the above rectangle in square feet.
Since 1 yard = 3 feet, multiply each dimension by 3 to convert from yards to feet:
Use the area formula, substituting :
square feet
Example Question #2 : How To Find The Area Of A Rectangle
The ratio of the perimeter of one square to that of another square is . What is the ratio of the area of the first square to that of the second square?
For the sake of simplicity, we will assume that the second square has sidelength 1; Then its perimeter is , and its area is .
The perimeter of the first square is , and its sidelength is . The area of this square is therefore .
The ratio of the areas is therefore .
