How is the area of a square related to its side length?

Answer 1

I think that since you need to know the length (and width) of a square (and pretty much any other shape) to find out its area, that's how they are related. Or you could always work backwards, knowing the area but not the side lengths.

Hope this helps! Sorry if it didn't :)

Answer 2

*(and/or width) of a square...

Answer 3

Thank u Stephanie! Helps a lot :)

Answer 4

The area is the square of the side.

e.g. if the side is 7 units, then the area is 7^2 or 49 square units
