You can use trigonometry to find the solution. A diagonal divides a square into two triangles, known as "45-45-90" triangles (because of the measures of each angle). According to a law of the same name, the hypotenuse (side opposite of the 90o angle) has a length equal to the length of a leg (side opposite of a 45o angle) times the square root of two. So, since the hypotenuse is a diagonal, you will find that the length of each side of the square is 6 divided by the square root of 2. Find the square of this, and you have the total area: 18 square yards.

What is the area of a rectangle with base 3 1 3 yds and height 7 2 1 yds?
Area of the rectangle = base*height and measured in square yards
What is the diameter of a circle of 1 acre?
To find the diameter of a circle with an area of 1 acre, we first need to convert the area from acres to square feet. One acre is equal to 43,560 square feet. The formula to calculate the diameter of a circle from its area is diameter = 2 * √(area / π). Substituting the area of 43,560 square feet into the formula gives us a diameter of approximately 235 feet.
What is the area with a radius of 7 yds?
Because it has a radius, I'm assuming the area is a circle. The formula of area for a circle is A = pi*r2, so in this case the area is about 154 square yards.
What is the length of a rectangle if the area is 116 sq yds and the width is 4 yds?
Area = length x width, so length = area/width = 116/4 = 29 yds
How many yards in 576 square feet?
64 square yards. One square yard is 3ft x 3ft = 9 sq ft. So 576/9 = 64. Also. the square root of 576 = 24. So 24 ft x 24 ft = 576 sq ft. 24 ft = 8 yards, 8 yds x 8 yds = 64 sq yds.
