What is the length of a side of a square whose diagonal measures 4?
Designate the length by L. From the Pythagorean theorem, the length of the diagonal of a square, which divides the square into two right triangles, each with sides L (and the diagonal as hypotenuse to each right triangle), is square root of 2L2 = 4 (from the problem statement). Squaring both sides separately yields 2L2 = 16 or L = square root of 8 = 2 (square root of 2).
What is the formula to find the diagonal of a rectangle?
The diagonal of a rectangle is the third and longest side of a triangle with sides the same as those of the rectangle, so its length is the square root of the sum of the squares of the lengths of the sides of the triangle, (Pythoagoras' Theorem) which are also the sides of the rectangle. If the rectangle is 3 inches by 4 inches, then the diagonal is the square root of 3 squared (= 9) and 4 squared (= 16) so the diagonal is the square root of 16 + 9 = 25, giving it the length of 5 inches.
What is the area of a square if the length is 16 inches?
A square with a side length of 16 inches has an area of 256 square inches.
What are the dimensions of a square that has the perimeter of sixteen?
Each side is 4. The diagonal is 5.66 and the area is 16 square units.
If the length of a rectangle is 16 and the width is 12 what is the diagonal measurement?
The diagonal is 20.
What is the side length of a square with a diagonal of 16?
The side lengths of a square with a diagonal of 16 is: 11.31.
What is the length of one side of a square with a 16-centimeter diagonal?
The length of one side of a square with a 16-centimeter diagonal is: 11.31 cm
What is the diagonal of a square that has a 16' side?
Using Pythagoras' theorem the diagonal is 16 times the square root of 2
Find the length of the radius of a regular quadrilateral with a perimeter of 16 cm?
A "regular quadrilateral" is a square. The word "radius" isn't used for squares (or polygons in general). To get the length of a side, divide the perimeter by 4. To get the diagonal of a square, multiply the length of a side by the square root of 2.

What is the diagonal of a square with a side of 16?
16*sqrt(2) = 22.627 (to 3 dp).
How do you find the length of a diagnol of a square if the perimeter is 64 cm?
If the perimeter is 64, then one side is 16. The diagonal is the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Hello Pythagoras. The answer is the square root of 512 or 16 times the square root of 2.

How do you calculate the diagonal of a rectangle?
If you take the square of the long side and add it to the square of the short side, you get the diagonal (hypotenuse) squared. Then just find square root of that. For example, if short side is 3cm and long side is 4cm: 9 + 16 = 25, so the diagonal would be the square root of 25 ie. 5.
