Here's a good question I couldn't fiqure out:

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-03-24] [Hit: ]
their connection will form a square, which has the area of 10x10.Cube also has 8 corners and 12 sides, but we show it as ^3. Because what the third power does is add another perpendicular dimension.Therefore its caused by dimensional thinking,......
Why do they call it 2 squared when a square is OBVIOUSLY 4 sided.

-
Because normally numbers are in one dimension. For example when I say 10 meters, I only mean a line 10m long. But if you draw a secondary plane perpendicular to the initial, and draw the same line there, their connection will form a square, which has the area of 10x10.

Cube also has 8 corners and 12 sides, but we show it as ^3. Because what the third power does is add another perpendicular dimension.

Therefore it's caused by dimensional thinking, and is one of the toughest things to describe through writing.

-
Because a square is 2 dimensional while a cube is three dimensional hence 2 cubed.

-
When we solve the area of a square we use the unit with a square sign, such as m^2, cm^2..//
