About Square inches and Square yards
Square inches (in²): One inch squared, or 6.4516 cm² exactly (since the inch is defined as 2.54 cm exactly). Common uses: Small flat areas in US contexts — phone screens, computer chip die sizes, postal stamps, and small fabricated parts.
Square yards (yd²): Nine square feet, or 0.836 m²; less commonly used than square feet but still appears in landscaping and some flooring. Common uses: Carpet and large-area flooring sales, athletic fields (football, soccer field dimensions), and some landscaping contexts.
