Question

question 1 (1 point)
find the area of the square.
14 ft
14 ft
the area is:
a 28 ft²
b 196 ft²
c 56 ft²

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for the area of a square

The area \( A \) of a square is given by the formula \( A = s^2 \), where \( s \) is the length of a side.

Step2: Identify the side length of the square

From the diagram, the side length \( s \) of the square is \( 14 \) ft.

Step3: Calculate the area

Substitute \( s = 14 \) ft into the formula: \( A = 14^2 = 14 \times 14 = 196 \) square feet.

Answer:

b. \( 196\ \text{ft}^2 \)
