It depends on the relationship between the triangle and the square!
If the length of a side of the square is S units then the diagonal is S*sqrt(2) units in length.
The side length of the square is about 3.54 units using Pythagoras' theorem for a right angle triangle
Firstly you need to work out the length of a side. Using Pythagorean Theorem for a right angled triangle a2+b2=c2 where a = the length, b = height & c = diagonal since c = 8 and a = b are the same 2a2 = 64 a2 = 32 a = 5.657 cm since the area of the square is a2 then area = 32cm2
The diagonal length of a square with a 900 square foot area is: 42.43 feet.
25 feet Pythagorean theorem says length of diagonal is square root of (width squared plus length squared). This is a 3-4-5 ratio right triangle
If the length of a side of the square is S units then the diagonal is S*sqrt(2) units in length.
no but the diagonal divides the square into two equilateral triangles. An equilateral triangle is a triangle that has two sides of the same length
As a square has right angles, the diagonal forms a right triangle with two of the sides of the square. Therefore use Pythagoras: diagonal² = side² + side² → diagonal² = 2side² → diagonal = side × √2 Therefore to find the length of the diagonal of a square, multiply the side length of a square by the square root of 2.
8*sqrt(2) The diagonal of the square would be the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed by two of the sides of the square.
15.6977cm
You multiply the length of a side by the square root of 2.If you only have the area, square root it to find the length of a side.
The length of the diagonal of a square with sides 5 is 5√2. This is because of the properties of a 45-45-90 triangle.
The side length of the square is about 3.54 units using Pythagoras' theorem for a right angle triangle
Use Pythagoras. The diagonal, and two sides of the square form a right angled triangle. So if each side of the square is x cm long, the diagonal is x*sqrt(2) cm long.
Divide the length of the diagonal of a square by 1.4142 (which is the square root of 2) to find the length of a side. Similarly, to find the length of the diagonal of a square, multiply the length of a side by 1.4142.
Firstly you need to work out the length of a side. Using Pythagorean Theorem for a right angled triangle a2+b2=c2 where a = the length, b = height & c = diagonal since c = 8 and a = b are the same 2a2 = 64 a2 = 32 a = 5.657 cm since the area of the square is a2 then area = 32cm2
Since a square has right angles, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the diagonal. Specifically, the diagonal of a square is equal to the length of a side, multiplied by the square root of 2.
