Usually you do not use the prefix micro by itself, it must be followed by the name of a unit: 1 micrometer=10^-6 meter. This being said, you want to enter 100*10^-6 and raise it to power 2.
For this you can use the exponent rules.

  1. 100*10^-6=(10^2)*(10^-6)=10^(2-6)=10^-4; product of powers =>algebraic sum pf exponents
  2. (10^-4)^2=10^(-4*2) =10^(-8) ; power of power =>product of exponents.
With your calculator: You have a key near which is written [10 to x]; you access the function with [2nd][10 to x]

In what follows, I will enter (10^-6)* 100 and square it. I will use the change sign (-) or [+/-] key
(-6) [2nd][10 to x] [*] 100 [=] [x^2] [=]

The first = calculates 100*10^(-6), the second [=] calculates the square of the number obtained after the first [=].
There are other ways that use parentheses to avoid ambiguities, but I think this is the safest one for you. Be warned that the result will most likely be displayed in scientific format, 1.00 -08 where the -08 will be raised with respect to the main level line. If not, the result will be 0.00000001

    Another, simpler way
    100 [EE] (-)6 [X^2] gives 0.00000001
    If you press [2nd][5] to convert to (SCI) notation, you get 1. -08 where -08 has half the height of the 1, and is raised above the level line.

    A shorter way to enter your calculation : 100EE (+ -)6 [X^2]
