Question

On a coordinate plane, Square A is translated 4 units to the right and 6 units up, resulting in Square B.

If each side of Square A is 5 units in length, what is the area of Square B?

The area of a square is calculated using the formula:

\[
\text{Area} = \text{side length}^2.
\]

Given that each side of Square A is 5 units, the area of Square A is:

\[
\text{Area of Square A} = 5^2 = 25 \text{ square units}.
\]

When Square A is translated to create Square B, the size of Square B remains the same. Translations do not change the dimensions of shapes; they only change their positions on the coordinate plane.

Therefore, the area of Square B is the same as the area of Square A:

\[
\text{Area of Square B} = 25 \text{ square units}.
\]

So, the area of Square B is:

\[
\boxed{25} \text{ square units}.
\]
