which best describes the area of a polygon

A. the distance around the outside edge
B. the number of cubic units contained in the interior
C. the number of square units contained in the interior
D. the product of the side lengths

Respuesta :

The correct answer is:

C. the number of square units contained in the interior  

Explanation:

Area is a measurement of how much surface a 2-dimensional figure covers.  This means it is the amount of surface inside a 2-dimensional figure as well, since there are only 2 dimensions in the figure.

Since area is a 2-dimensional measurement, this means that the units will have an exponent of 2; this means squared units.

The correct answer is the number of square units contained in the interior.

The area is a measurement of how much surface a 2-dimensional figure covers.

 

What are the 2-dimensional figure covers?

Two-dimensional figures are flat plane shapes or figures that have two dimensions (length and width) in the same plane.

This means it is the amount of surface inside a 2-dimensional figure as well since there are only 2 dimensions in the figure.

Since the area is a 2-dimensional measurement, this means that the units will have an exponent of 2.

This means squared units.
