Question

find the side of aardvark square whose diagonal is 10​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , diagonal of the square = 10 units

And since it is a square, therefore all the sides are equal .

Let , the sides of the square = a units .

Now , by Pythagoras Theorem ,

${a}^{2} + {a}^{2} = {10}^{2}$

$= > 2 {a}^{2} = 100$

$= > {a}^{2} = 50$

$= > a = \sqrt{50}$

$= > a = 5 \sqrt{2} \: \: unit$

Therefore the side of the square = 5√2 units.
