The expression "1^4 x 1^?" is equal to "1^12", so we can write:

1^4 * 1^? = 1^12

Using the exponent rule that a^m * a^n = a^(m + n), we can simplify this equation as follows:

1^(4 + ?) = 1^12

Since the base of the exponents is 1, the value of the exponent is the same as the exponent of the result:

4 + ? = 12

Solving for the unknown exponent, we can subtract 4 from both sides:

? = 12 - 4

? = 8

So, the value of '?' is 8.
