Cubed; Area is squared.
Short version: No, squared is to the second power, cubed to the third.
Long version: No- squared is X2 , or x times x. Cubed is X3, or x times x times x. For example:
Squared: 22= 2x2= 4
Cubed: 23= 2x2x2= 8
So any 3-D object has to be X3. Area, which is 2-D, is squared.

Is the volume of a circular cone cubed or squared?
cubed
Is perimeter squared or cubed?
I'm pretty sure that perimeter is squared and volume is cubed.
Is the surface area of a triangular prism cubed?
Surface area is squared; volume is cubed.
Is volume squared?
No, volume is cubed. Area is squared, for example, 2cm^2 Volume would be in cubic centimeters, meters, etc.
Is area cubed or squared?
Area is notated as Unit squared because you are only dealing with 2 dimension (Length and Width). Volume, however, is unit cubed because you are now involving height as a third dimension.
Are the units of volume cubed or squared why?
Cubed. The reason is that space has three dimensions - and that is basically what we are measuring.
How do you convert the volume of a cylinder from squared to cubed?
Volume of any 3-dimensional object is always 'Cubic'. 'Squared' refers to area. The volume of a cylinder is V = pir^2h Where pi r^2 refers to the area of the circular profile of the cylinder., which is a 'squared' value/ 'h' is the height of the cylinder , which is a linear value. When a squared value is multiplied to a linear value , it becomes a cubic value.
Is volume a triangular prism labeled units squared or units cubed?
Whenever you are answering volume questions, it's always units cubed (^3).
Why is perimeter squared?
area comes out with squared units of measurement, volume with cubed, perimeter stays to the power of 1.
How is surface area labeled?
Surface area is squared. Only volume is cubed.
