When finding area, you need to know the area formula of the specific object and its associated dimensions. For example, if it's a rectangle, then the dimensions are length and width. So, to find the area you need to be given these dimensions and then use the formula length times the width. Different shapes, such as circles, squares, and trapezoids, will have different area formulas.
