What is the area of a square that measures 3.1m on each side?
A.
12.4m2
B.
9.61m2
C.
6.2m2
D.
9.1m2
To find the area of a square, use the formula:Area=side length2\text{Area} = \text{side length}^2Area=side length2
Given that each side of the square is 3.1 meters:Area=3.12=9.61 m2\text{Area} = 3.1^2 = 9.61 \text{ m}^2Area=3.12=9.61 m2
So, the area of the square is:
B. 9.61 m²
