Answer 2

Answer:

The area is 121 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a square is given as:

P = 4l

where l is the length of its sides

Given that the perimeter is 44 inches, we have:

44 = 4l

l = 44/4 = 11

The length of it's sides is 11 inches.

The area is given as:

`\begin{gathered} A=l^2 \\ \\ =11^2 \\ =121 \end{gathered}`

The area is 121 square inches.
