Respuesta :

the length of each side can be found using pythagoras theorem:-

11.3^2 = 2x^2     where x = length od each side
x = sqrt( [11.3^2  / 2)
x =  7.99 meters

Answer:

The perimeter of the square is [tex]31.96\ m[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The perimeter of a square is equal to

[tex]P=4b[/tex]

where

b is the length side of the square

Step 1

Find the length side of the square

The diagonal of the square is equal to

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

[tex]d^{2} =b^{2}+b^{2}\\d^{2}=2b^{2}\\d=b \sqrt{2}[/tex]

In this problem we have

[tex]d=11.3\ m[/tex]

[tex]d=b\sqrt{2}[/tex] ------> solve for b

[tex]b=d/\sqrt{2}[/tex]

substitute the value of d

[tex]b=11.3/\sqrt{2}\ m[/tex]

Step 2

Find the perimeter of the square

[tex]P=4b[/tex]

Substitute the value of b

[tex]P=4(11.3/\sqrt{2})=31.96\ m[/tex]
