Question

The lengths of the sides of a square are 5 cm. find the length of the diagonal

Answer 1

square root (50) = 7.071

Explanation:

Using Pthagoras' theorem, the diagonal length is
`√(x) ax^(2) +bx^(2)`.

Therefore, the diagonal length is the square root of 5^2+5^2,

=
`√(x) 25+25`

=
`√(x) 50`

= 7.071
