Question

Find the area of a square with sides 17 meters long.

Answer 1

Given:

Length of one side of the square, L = 17 meters

Let's find the area of the square.

To find the area of a square, apply the formula:

`\text{Area}=L^2`

Where:

L is length of one side of the square = 17 meters

Hence, we have:

`\text{Area}=L^2=17^2=17\ast17=289m^2`

Therefore, the area of the square is 289 square meters.

ANSWER:

289
