the length of the side of this square is 4\sqrt{2} \:or \:5.65cm

Answer:

Solutions Given:

let diagonal of square be AC: 8 cm

let each side be a.

As diagonal bisect square.

let it forms right angled triangle ABC .

Where diagonal AC is hypotenuse and a is their opposite side and base.

By using Pythagoras law

hypotenuse ²=opposite side²+base side²

8²=a²+a²

64=2a²

a²=\frac{64}{2}

a²=32

doing square root on both side

\sqrt{a²}=\sqrt{32}

a=±\sqrt{2*2*2*2*2}

a=±2*2\sqrt{2}

Since side of square is always positive so

a=4\sqrt{2} or 5.65 cm

Answer:

<u>Given</u> :

↠ The diagonal of a square is 8 cm.

<u>To</u><u> </u><u>Find</u> :

↠ The length of the side of square.

<u>Using Formula</u> :

Here is the formula to find the side of square if diagonal is given :

\implies{\sf{a =  \sqrt{2}  \dfrac{d}{2}}}

Where :

  • ➺ a = side of square
  • ➺ d = diagonal of square

<u>Solution</u> :

Substituting the given value in the required formula :

{\dashrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{ \: a =  \sqrt{2}  \dfrac{d}{2}}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ \: a =  \sqrt{2}   \times \dfrac{8}{2}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ \: a =  \sqrt{2}   \times \cancel{\dfrac{8}{2}}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ \: a =  \sqrt{2}   \times 4}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ \: a = 4\sqrt{2}}}}

{\dashrightarrow{\sf{\underline{\underline{\red{ \: a = 5.65 \: cm}}}}}}

Hence, the length of the side of square is 5.6 cm.

\underline{\rule{220pt}{3pt}}

Karolina [17]

Answer and explanation:

The data we get from counting how many people entering a building in one minute is the sample of the population size. We do this since it would be tedious or not feasible to stand and count one by one how many people enter the building and so we do a good estimate with our one minute sample

Let's assume in one minute, 15 people enter the building and it takes one hour for everyone to enter the building

Population size would be 15*60 minutes= 900 people
