All sides of a square are equal. To find the area if a square we multiply two sides together. 4 x 4 =16 so the length of each side is 4

You get area by multiplying length by width. So this would be 117 square units.

Each side of the square will be 25 units in length.


How do you find the radius of a square?

A square does not have a radius. A square, with sides of length x units, can have an inscribed circle. Such a circle would have a radius of x/2 units. Or the square could have a circumscribing circle. This would have a radius of x/sqrt(2) units.


How do you find area of square if diagonal is given?

Using Pythagoras' theorem which says that the square on the hypotenuse (in this case the diagonal) is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides (which in the case of a square would be equal in length). so if the diagonal measured 10 units, the square on the diagonal would be 100 square units. And as this = 2*the squares on the other sides, the square on one side would be 100/2 = 50 square units. As a square has sides of equal length the square on one side is actually the area of the square. i.e. the area of a square with a diagonal of 10 units is 50 square units. or generically the area of a square with a diagonal of length 'x' = (x2)/2


What is the area if the length is 9 and width is 3?

Multiply width by length to get the area. The answer would be 27 square units.


Explain how you would find the length of one side of a square if the area is 36 square units?

For a square, the length of each side is equal to the square root of the area. In this case, the square root of 36 is 6. So, each side measures six units.

What is the square units in a interior of a 2d figure or the surface of a 3d figure?

A 2D interior will be length times width (a flat shape) as in the area of a floor.A 3D figure would be length times width times depth (a raised shape) as in a box.The units used would depend. A floor would be in feet and inches or metres and centimetres.A 3D figure would be in a similar measurement, but given in cubic units.
