As given:

The side of the Square= (2x+

As we know:

The area of a square = Side × side

Putting the values of side in above formula we get:

Area = (2x+4) ×(2x+4)

on solving we get:

Area= 2x×2x + 2x×4 +4×2x + 4×4

Area= 4x^2 + 8x + 8x + 16

Area= 4x^2 + 16x + 16

Hence,The Area of the Square is (4x^2+ 16x +16)
