Answer:

Remember that if u draw a line in the middle your square will form two triangles.

The line u forming will be your diagonal.

Then u use the Theorem of Pythagoras as the diagonal in the middle forms two right angle triangles.

Then it's going to be 4 squared plus 4 squared Then your answer you square root it.

Since it's from corner to centre you will take your answer and divide it by 2.As your answer will be 2 square root 2.
