Explanation:

• Option A: Area is defined as the number of square units that cover the interior of a two - dimensional region (or polygon). This matches the description in the question.
• Option B: Perimeter is the total length of the boundary of a polygon, measured in linear units (e.g., meters, feet), not square units.
• Option C: Width is a linear measurement (e.g., the horizontal side length of a rectangle) and is measured in linear units, not square units.
• Option D: Height is also a linear measurement (e.g., the vertical side length of a rectangle) and is measured in linear units, not square units.
