What size is a square meter?
A square meter is a measurement of area. One square meter is the equivalent of the area of a square that is one meter in length on each side. The perimeter of such a square (the total distance around it) would be four meters.
How do I measure 1 square meter?
Multiply the length and width together. Once both measurements are converted into metres, multiply them together to get the measurement of the area in square metres.
