Answer:

12

Explanation:

as it is a square so it will have 4 identical sides

and area is length multiplied by width so you would find the square root of 144


√(144 ) = 12

then because area your only multiplying those two values and because a square is identical

all sides will be 12cm


{12cm}^(2)
