Given the equation:
The formula for the area of a square is s^2, where s is the side length of the square.
Determine the area if the side length is 6 cm.
Solution:
In order to determine the area of the square, we simply needed to equate 6cm to the formula for the area of the square.
A = s^2
A = (6 cm)^2
A = 36 cm^2
Final answer:
The area of the square is 36 cm^2
