The new facility is the square in shape the link of one of the walls is 20 feet how many square feet is the facility
well the length and width of a square are the same
as you know, the area of any rectangle is length * width, so ...
and that's "length" not "link"
sheesh. and punctuation helps, too.
To determine the square footage of the facility, we need to know the length of all the walls. However, you mentioned that the length of only one wall is given, which is 20 feet.
When a facility is square-shaped, it means all four walls have the same length. So, to calculate the total square footage, we'll need to find the area of a square.
The area of a square is calculated by multiplying the length of one side by itself. In this case, since all four sides are equal in length, we can square the length of a single side.
Let's calculate the area:
Length of one side = 20 feet
Area of the facility = (Length of one side)²
Area of the facility = 20 feet × 20 feet
Area of the facility = 400 square feet
Therefore, the facility has an area of 400 square feet.
