Question

Christopher cuts a piece of paper in the shape of a square for a design that he is creating. Each side of the square paper measures 7 inches. What is the area of the paper?

Answer 1

The area of a square is found by multiplying the length of one side by itself. In this case, each side of the square measures 7 inches, so the area is 7 inches times 7 inches, or 49 square inches.
