Calculating Area of Shapes

The video tutorial, led by Teacher Frel, covers the concept of finding the area of figures using square tile units. It begins with an introduction to the lesson's objectives, followed by a detailed explanation of what area is and how it can be calculated for squares and rectangles. The tutorial includes practical examples and practice problems to reinforce learning. The session concludes with a review of key concepts and a summary of the lesson.

What is the formula to calculate the area of a square?

• Side times Side
