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.

To find the area of a square with a diagonal of 14, we first need to determine the length of one side of the square. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can calculate that the side length is 7√2. Then, we can find the area of the square by squaring the side length, which gives us 98 square units.
The diagonal of a square is not perpendicular to its side. The diagonal of a square will separate the square into two triangles. The diagonal goes from one corner to the opposite corner. Because it is a square, the diagonal and a side of the square will always form a 45-degree angle.
Well, isn't that a happy little question! To find the diagonal measurement of a square, we can use the Pythagorean theorem. So, for a square that is 16 feet by 24 feet, we can calculate the diagonal by taking the square root of (16^2 + 24^2), which equals about 28.84 feet. Just imagine that diagonal stretching across your square canvas, creating a beautiful harmony of length and width.
The diagonal of a 101 inch square is about 142.84 inches.
