SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on calculating the surface area of square ABCD given specific points E and F inside the square. The angles ∢AEF and ∢EFC are both 90 degrees, with lengths AE = 2, CF = 6, and EF = 6. The diagonal AC measures 10 units, leading to the conclusion that the surface area of square ABCD is 100 square units, as the side length can be derived from the diagonal using the formula for the diagonal of a square.
