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.

Using Pythagoras:
diagonal² = side² + side² = 2 × side²
→ side² = diagonal² ÷ 2
area = side²
= diagonal² ÷ 2
= 14² ÷ 2
= 98 units²
The area is 72 cm2
The diagonal of a square whose area is 36 is the square root of 72, or about 8.49. Since the area of a square is side(squared), then the sides are each 6. Then since a(squared) + b(squared) = c(squared), for a triangle (the diagonal), you get the square root of 72.
Using Pythagoras: diagonal² = side² + side² = 2 × side² → side² = diagonal² ÷ 2 area = side² = diagonal² ÷ 2 → diagonal² = 2 × area → diagonal = √(2 × area) = √(2 × 36) = 6√2 ≈ 8.49
The garden's diagonal is 10 meters.
If the area of a square is 100, then its side length is 10. If we draw in a diagonal, then we know by the Pythagorean formula that the diagonal's length is sqrt(10^2 + 10^2) = sqrt(200) = 10*sqrt(2).The square root of 2 is approximately 1.414, so the diagonal's length is approximately 10*1.414 =14.14* The diagonal of any square is the side length times (sq rt 2).
