Answer:

C: 25 ft2

Explanation:

Perimeter is the factor of all the side lengths added together. If 4 equal sides added together equals 20, what times 4 equals 20? 5 times 4 equals 20. Which means the side length is 5. Area is side length x side length, so 5 x 5=25 so the answer is C hope this helps!
