To find the length of each diagonal of a square, divide the sum of the diagonal lengths by 2. Since a square has two diagonals of equal length, this division will give you the length of each diagonal.
You square the width and subtract it from the diagonal squared. Then find the square root of this number, this number is now the length.

To find the length of a diagonal in a rectangle, use the Pythagorean method. Diagonal length = square root(length squared + height squared).
-- Multiply the rectangle's length by itself. ('square' the length) -- Multiply the rectangle's width by itself. ('square' the width) -- Add the two results. -- Find the square root of the sum. It is the length of the diagonal.
Divide the length of the diagonal of a square by 1.4142 (which is the square root of 2) to find the length of a side. Similarly, to find the length of the diagonal of a square, multiply the length of a side by 1.4142.
Using Pythagoras's theorem, you will find that the diagonal is sqrt(2) = 1.4142 cm (approx),
Use Pythagoras' theorem to find the length of the diagonal in the square
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 side of a square is is cube root of 2cm. Find the length of the diagonals.
The perimeter of a square with a diagonal length of 24 square root 2 millimeters (33.94 mm) is: 96 mm
If you know the length of the side, multiply it by the square root of 2.
Given the length of the diagonal of the square ... call it 'D units'. The area of the square is (1/2 D2) (same units)2.
