Answer:

60 in

Explanation:

The area of a square can be computed as ...

A = (1/2)d^2 . . . . where d is the length of the diagonal

For an area of 1800 in^2, the diagonal length can be found as ...

1800 in^2 = 1/2d^2

3600 in^2 = d^2

d = √3600 in = 60 in

The length of each diagonal is 60 inches.
