Arthur Pythagoras: Diagonal = sqrt (square of side 1 + square of side 2)

In your case D = sqrt (2 x 2500) = 70.71cm

Addendum: If it is a square, as is your case, multiply the length of one side by the square root of 2:

1.4142 * 50.00 cm = 70.71 cm.

How do you work out the diagonal line in a rectangle size 5cm x 10cm?

Use Pythagoras's theorem -- c2=a2+b2, where a and b are sides of a rectangle, and c is the diagonal. Here, a = 5 [cm] and b = 10 [cm] So, c = sqrt (52 + 102) = 11.18 [cm] (<-- the negative root can be ignored) ===========================================
