The area of the square is 72 cm².

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's understand a few concepts:

To solve the given problem we will use the following formulas:

  • \boxed{\bold{Area \:of\:a\: square= side^2 = a^2}}

  • \boxed{\bold{Diagonal \:of\:square = a\sqrt{2} }}

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's solve the given problem:

Let "a" cm be the length of the side of the square.

∴ The diagonal of the square = a\sqrt{2} cm

The half of the diagonal of the square is of the length of 6 cm​, so we can form an equation as,

\frac{1}{2} \times diagonal\:of\:square = 6

\implies \frac{1}{2} \times a\sqrt{2} = 6

\implies a\sqrt{2} = 6\times 2

\implies a\sqrt{2} = 12

\implies a = \frac{2\times 2\times 3}{\sqrt{2} }

\implies  a = \frac{\sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2 } \times 2\times 3}{\sqrt{2} } . . . [∵ \sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2} = 2]

\implies  a = \sqrt{2 } \times 2\times 3

\implies  \bold{a =6 \sqrt{2 } \:cm}

Now,

The area of the square is,

= a²

= (6\sqrt{2} )^2

= 6\times 6\times \sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2}

= 36 \times 2

= \bold{72\:cm^2}

Thus, the area of the square is 72 cm².
