If it is a perfect square it's easy.
1. Find the length of one side of the square. (If it's a square, all sides will be the same.)
2. Multiply that side of the square by itself. If you have a easy square where each side is 2 inches, you'd multiply 2x2. The answer would be 4.
And that's your area! Very simple.

How do you use the area of a square to find the hypotenuse?
The area of a square is the square of the side (all sides of a square are of equal lengths). So taking the square root of the area would give the value of one side in linear units. Now adjacent sides of a square form a right angle. Therfore the hypotenuse would be the square root of (side^2 + side^2) but you know the value of the side from the previous step when you took the square of the area. Hence you can find the hypotenuse.
How do you find an area of a square?

What step by step on how to find the surface area and the volume of a can of green beans?
If r is the radius of the can and h is the height thenSurface area = pi*r*(r+h) square units Volume = pi*r^2*h.
How do you find out how long each side is on a square if the area is 100?
The formula for the area of a square is A=s2. So to find the sidelength, find the square root of the area.
How can you find the perimeter of a square if you know the area?
You square-root the area
