Answer 2

First & foremost you have to find the sides of the square
Since it's a square, all of the sides are equal:

`56/4=14`, so each side is 14m
Next you have to find the area of the square which is:

`A=a^2`, so plug in each side and you should get:

`A=14^2`, which is equal to:

`A=196`
Final Answer: 196m
