To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have the following information given in the problem above:

 -  The room has square dimensions and it has been built with two pieces of sheetrock, a smaller one and a larger one.

 2. Therefore, let's call

 x: the smaller one.
 y: the larger one.

 3. Then, you have that the lenght of the wall is the sum of the smaller one and the larger one:

 x+y

 4. So, the area of the room is:

 (x+y)(x+y)
 (x+y)²

 Therefore, the answer is: (x+y)²
