The area of a rectangle is always base * height, in this case, for a square the base and height are equal so, it is equal to the side^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i have these choices: 0.04m^2
0.42m^2
0.84.m^2
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
A = s^2
A = (0.21 m)^2
A = 0.21 * 0.21 m^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so will it be 0.42m^2?
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Do you have a calculator?
0.21 * 0.21 is not the same as 0.21 + 0.21

that would equal to 0.0441 if you multiply
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Correct.
Since you are asked to round to the nearest 100th, the answer is 0.04 m^2
