Answer:
10√2 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A square with all sides of length s has a diagonal of length s√2.
That is because the diagonal of the square is the hypotenuse (which is the longest side) of a right triangle with two sides of length s.
The Pythagorean Theorem states:
a²+ b² = c²
For this square:
s² + s² = (20)²
2s² = (20)²
s² = (20)²/2
s² = (20/√2)²
s = 20/√2
s = 10√2 cm
