to get the length of the diagonal of a square multiply the length of the side by \(\sqrt{2}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[45\times \sqrt{2} \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

assuming the length of the side is 45 it is not clear from the picture

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it's 63.639..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

By the Pythagora's theorem,the square of the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.therefore giving X=45timesthe square root of 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x is 63.639..?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (phi):

yes, but often people leave it as 45*sqrt(2) because anything else is approximate.
