To find the area of a square: -- Measure the length of any side. In a square, all sides are the same length. -- Multiply that number by itself. ("Square" the number.) Example: If each side of the square is 9ft long, then the area is (9ft times 9ft) = 81 square ft
All four sides of a square have equal length. Call that length 'S'.

The formula for area, which we shall call 'A', is:

A = S2

=======================================

Another contributor clarified (?) :

Simply, A= area, L= length. W= width A=LW, as in any square that has two equal sides.
