A square can't have a side of 16 m2 (square meters). That's a unit of area, not a unit of length. A length can be in meters, centimeters, etc.
Once you have the correct measure for the side, just multiply it by itself to get the area.

The area of a square is given as the square of a side. So simply take the square root of the area for a side.
1 side of square = 2cm area of square = side x side so, area= 2x2 = 4 cm^2
To find the side length of a square with an area of 36, you need to take the square root of the area. In this case, the square root of 36 is 6. Therefore, the side length of the square is 6 units.
The side length of a square if the area is 196 cm2 is: 14 cm
