The answer is ${9 cm}^{2}$ $"9 cm"^2$ .

Firstly, we have to find the length each side of the square.

The length of each side of the square $\to$ $rarr$ $12 cm \div 4 = 3 cm$ $"12 cm" ÷ 4 = "3 cm"$

The formula to find the area is

$length \times length$ $"length " xx " length"$

Hence, the area of the square $\to$ $rarr$ $3 cm \times 3 cm = {9 cm}^{2}$ $"3 cm" xx "3 cm" = "9 cm"^2$
