Question

A square sheet of paper measures 25 centimeters on each side. What is the length of the diagonal of this paper?

Answer 1

Answer:

35.36 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal of a square will be given by

$D=\sqrt {a^{2}+b^{2}}$

Where a is the length of one side and b is the length of another side. For a square, botj sides are equal hence the diagonal calculations will be as follows

Given that a is 25 then

$D=\sqrt {25^{2}+25^{2}}$

D=35.3553390593274

Rounding off the nearest two decimal place

D=35.36 cm
