The area of a square, in square units, with side
x is given by the function A = x2. Find the
area of a square patio that is 40 feet long on a
side.
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The side is 40 feet long, so the total area of the square is 40^2 = 1600 square feet.
Using the formula, you would get
A = x^2
A = 40^2
A = 1600
