To find the area of an equilateral triangle with side 12 cm, we can use the formula:

Area = (√3/4) * (side length)^2

Substituting the value of the side length, we get:

Area = (√3/4) * 12^2

Area = (√3/4) * 144

Area = (√3/4) * 1212

Area = (√3/4) * 1212 = (√3/4)144 = (√3)12(12/4) = (√3)123 = 1212*√3 cm^2

So, the area of the equilateral triangle is 1212√3 cm^2.
