There are a variety of modern definitions of economics, some reflect evolving views of the subject or different views among economists.
So the area of the square is 7 x7 = 49 cm^2 and the perimeter of the square is 7 x 4 = 28 cm. And in example 1 you have a square of side length 8cm and you need to work out the area and perimeter of the square. So the area of the square is 8 x8 = 64 cm^2 and the perimeter of the square is 8 x 4 = 32 cm.
Since all squares have equal length sides, you can just multiply the distance by itself. If the length of a side of a square is 3 centimeter (1.2 in), then you just have to square 3 centimeter (1.2 in) to find the area of a square. 3 centimeter (1.2 in) x 3 centimeter (1.2 in) = 9 cm 2. 3.
