What is Square?
Square is a type of quadrilateral (polygon with four sides) with all four sides and angles being equal.
Some common properties of square are:
- All four sides of a square are of equal length.
- Each internal angle of a square measures 90 degrees.
- Diagonals of a square intersect each other at right angles and bisect each other, dividing the square into four congruent right-angled triangles.
- Diagonals of a square are equal in length.
- A square has rotational symmetry of order four, meaning it looks the same after a rotation of 90°, 180°, or 270°.
Area of Square
Area of a Square or area of any figure is defined as the space occupied by it in 2-D space. So, Area of Square is defined as the space enclosed by the boundary of the square. Measurement of area is done in square units. The SI unit for measurement of the area is m2.
For finding areas of various figures, several pre-defined formulas are used, in this article, we will study the formulas for finding the area of the square.
