Answer: 169cm^2

Step by step explanation: we know that all side lengths of a square are always equal

So, with the perimeter, we divide it by four as a square has four equal sides

52/4 is 13

Now, we know that each side of the square is 13cm


To find the area of a square , we do side length* side length

13*13 is equal to 169cm^2
