Hint: In this question, we need to fill the blanks with any two units of area. The answer can contain the SI unit and any of the commonly used units. Also, apart from the SI unit, we can also fill the blank with the C.G.S unit, which is in \[c{m^2}\].

Complete step by step answer:
The two units of area are:
i)
 $ metr{e^2} \\
  \left( {{m^2}} \right) $
ii)
$ hectare \\
  \left( {ha} \right) $
Definition of \[metr{e^2}\]: The area of a square whose side is \[1metre\]. This unit is used to measure the area of rooms, boxes, blocks of land, houses, plots, etc. The symbol for \[metr{e^2}\] is \[{m^2}\]. This is measured in the SI system of units.

For example: The area of a typical car parking space is \[12{m^2}\].
Definition of \[hectare\]: The hectare is a non S.I. unit system. This is a unit of area, that is equivalent to \[10,000metr{e^2}\] or\[2.471acres\]. This unit is widely used all over the world to measure large areas, mainly for large – area buildings, houses, properties, etc. The term is derived from the Latin area and from hect, an irregular contraction of the Greek word for hundred.

Note: Alternatively, the answer can also be centimeter square \[\left( {c{m^2}} \right)\]
Definition: This unit is equivalent to the area of a square that is one centimeter inside. It is usually used to measure small areas such as on drawings.
The symbol is \[c{m^2}\].
