Hello!

A square has four sides, and they have the same length. We must use a formula to calculate the area of a square. The formula is:

A = s^2

It's just the sides squared.

Each side is 7 feet long.

Substitute:

A = 7^2

A = 49

ANSWER:

The area of the room is 49 ft squared.

*Put a small 2 at the end of "ft" to indicate that it is squared!
