AREA: To find the area of the square or the rectangle, multiply X to Y
For example: Let X = 5 and Y = 5. this is a square because the length of the X is equal to the Y's.
area = (5) * (5) = 25 -->this does not have the unit
BUT we say the X = 5 feet and the Y = 5 feet then
Area = (5 feet) * ( 5 feet) = 25 ft^2 (ft^2 = square feet)
WHAT ABOUT THE VOLUME? there is only one more dimension to include.
Let say: X = 5 Y = 5 Z =5
Volume of a cube = 5*5*5
