Answer:
The diagonal length of a diskette is [tex]\sqrt{50}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
sides = 5 inches
To Find:
diagonal length of a diskette = ?
Solution:
The diskette is in the shape of square
So the diagonal of square = [tex]s \sqrt{2}[/tex]
where s is the side of the square
On substituting the square value
The diagonal of diskette = [tex](5) \sqrt{2}[/tex]
The diagonal of diskette = [tex]( \sqrt{5} )( \sqrt{5} )( \sqrt{2} )[/tex] [tex][\because 5 = \sqrt{5} \cdot \sqrt{5} ][/tex]
The diagonal of diskette = [tex]\sqrt{50}[/tex]
