According to the information given in the exercise, the pen for his rabbit is square and each side is 7 feet long.

You know that the formula for calculating the area of a square is:


A=s^2

Where "s" is the length of each side of the square.

In this case:


s=7ft

Then, you need to substitute this length into the formula and then evaluate, in order to find the area. You get:


\begin{gathered} A=(7ft)^2 \\ A=49ft^2 \end{gathered}

Hence, the answer is: Option A.
