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.
8*sqrt(2) The diagonal of the square would be the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed by two of the sides of the square.
Length of diagonal = Square root ( (side length 2) * 2 )
Using Pythagoras: 322+362 = 2320 and the square root of this is the length of the diagonal
Using Pythagoras' theorem which says that the square on the hypotenuse (in this case the diagonal) is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides (which in the case of a square would be equal in length). so if the diagonal measured 10 units, the square on the diagonal would be 100 square units. And as this = 2*the squares on the other sides, the square on one side would be 100/2 = 50 square units. As a square has sides of equal length the square on one side is actually the area of the square. i.e. the area of a square with a diagonal of 10 units is 50 square units. or generically the area of a square with a diagonal of length 'x' = (x2)/2
8.48, 6 squared+6 squared= c squared
The diagonal = the square root of (6 squared + 8 squared) 6 squared+8squared = 100 the square root of 100 = 10 so the length of the diagonal is 10. The above used Pythagoras' theorem which says the square on the diagonal is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.
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.
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.
The diagonal length = 7.07 inches.
The diagonal length of a square with a 900 square foot area is: 42.43 feet.
If the length of a side of the square is S units then the diagonal is S*sqrt(2) units in length.
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.
Use Pythagoras' theorem to find the length of the diagonal in the square
The side lengths of a square with a diagonal of 16 is: 11.31.
The square's diagonal is 11.314 cm
The diagonal length is about 20.59
