Two adjacent sides of a square and the diagonal joining their ends froms a right angle triangle. The legs of the triangle are 10 ft each and the diagonal is the hypotenuse. By pythagoras, diagonal = sqrt(102 + 102) = 10*sqrt(2) = 14.142 ft (to 3 dp).
The perimeter of a square with a diagonal of 12 centimeters is: 33.9 centimeters.In future, to find out the perimeter of a square when you only know it's diagonal, use Pythagoras or times the diagonal by 2.828427125.This number is irrational, and is like a pi for the diagonals of squares.I call it Tau.It is the relationship between the diagonal of all squares and there perimeter.
12 ft * 12 ft = 4 yd * 4 yd = 16 sq yards
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.
The dimensions given appear to describe a rectangular box, with 3 separate pairs of rectangles: 4X8 -> Diagonal is 8.944 ft 4X12 -> Diagonal is 12.649 ft 8X12 -> Diagonal is 14.422 ft
