if you are asking to find the other diagonal there is no doubt that the diagonal will be of 16cm because the diagonals of the square are always equal

Answer
30 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given ABCD is a square
perimeter of square = 68 cm
so side of square = 68 /4= 17cm.
now if one diagonal(suppose BD) is 16 cm
then AO=BO=8 cm
now according to Pythagoras triplet
(17)^2 = (8)^2 + (other diagonal )^2
289= 64 + (other diagonal )^2
(other diagonal )^2 = 289 - 64 = 225
other diagonsl = square root 225
other diagonal (AO) =15
so full diagonal AC = 15 +15=30cm.
