Question

multiple - choice question 0/100 what is the area of this square? 16 cm² 16 cm 12 cm² 8 cm² need to ask or add anything? rewatch continue

Explanation:

Step1: Recall area formula for square

The area formula of a square is $A = s^2$, where $s$ is the side - length of the square. The unit of area is square units (e.g., $cm^{2}$, $m^{2}$ etc.).

Step2: Analyze the options

Option "16 cm" is a length measurement, not an area measurement. Options "12 cm²" and "8 cm²" are not correct as there is no indication that they are the result of squaring a side - length for this square. If we assume the side - length of the square is 4 cm (since $4\times4 = 16$), the area is $16 cm^{2}$.

Answer:

16 cm²
