Notice that we can draw a triangle in the square , and that the length of the square's diagonal is the same as the length of the triangle's hypotenuse. The triangle is a right triangle therefore it satisfies the Phytagorean Theorem. To calculate for it's hypotenuse , we will use:
[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2[/tex]where c is the hypotenuse, and a, b are the other legs of the triangle.
[tex]\begin{gathered} c^2=30^2+30^2 \\ c^2=1800 \\ c=\sqrt[]{1800} \\ c=42.43 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since the hypotenuse of the triangle is 42.43 cm. Therefore, the square's diagonal is also 42.43 cm
Answer:
The square's diagonal is 42.43 cm
