Question

If ABCD is a square and AB = 10, what is the measure of BD? (rounded to the nearest hundredth) A) 7.07 B) 14.14 C) 19.21 D) 28.28If

Answer 1

B)14.14

Explanation:

a square is made of 2 right triangles

the two legs of one right triangle are both 10 so

using Pythagorean theorem we get the square root of 10^2+10^2

this solves to the square root of (200)

which is ≈ 14.14...
