Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of square = 36
(Side)*side =36
Side = √ 36
Side = 6 cm
Now, midpoints are joined so each side would become half
New sides are of 3cm
So area of the new square = 3*3
= 9 cm sq.
hope this is helpful.

Let ABCD be a square having an area of 36 cm².
Let P, Q , R , S be the midpoints of AB ,BC and DA respectively . Then , PQRS is a square ( given ).

⠀Area of a square ABCD = 36cm²
Side of a square ABCD =
⠀⠀⠀
Hence , BQ = cm
cm
⠀⠀⠀⠀BP = cm
cm
From right triangle PBQ ,we have:
⠀⠀⠀PQ² = BP² + BQ²= ( 3²+3²)cm²⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀= ( 9 + 9 )cm² = 18cm²
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So , Each side of the square PQRS
So , Area of the square PQRS
= 18 cm²
