AREA | DEFINITION
• Area can be defined as the space occupied by a 2-
Dimensional shape or the surface of an object.

• The area of a figure is the number of unit squares


that cover the surface of a closed figure. Area is
measured in square units such as square
centimeters, square feet, square inches, etc.
AREA | FORMULA
