Question

You know that the area of a rectangle equals 1 x w. For a square, the area equals the length of any side multiplied by itself.
The table shows areas of squares with different
side lengths. Complete the table.
Side Length (s)
Area (A = s²)

9
4
16
5

Answer 1

Use A = s².

- s = 1 → A = 1² = 1
- s = 2 → A = 2² = 4
- s = 3 → A = 3² = 9
- s = 4 → A = 4² = 16
- s = 5 → A = 5² = 25

(If you meant s = 8, then A = 8² = 64.)
