Answer:

The answer is 900cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area we must first find the length of one side of the square since a square has all sides equal.

Perimeter of a square = 4l

where l is the length of one side

From the question

Perimeter = 120cm

Substitute the value into the above formula to find the length

That's

120 = 4l

Divide both sides by 4

l = 30cm

We can now find the area using the formula

Area = l²

Area of the square = 30²

We have the final answer as

Area = 900cm²

Hope this helps you
