The formula for the length of the diagonal of a square is: d = s√2, where s is the length of one of the four (4) congruent sides of the square.
Since we're given that s = 6 m, then substituting into the formula for d, we get:
d = s√2
d= (6 m)√2
d = 6√2 m (is the exact length of the diagonal)
= (6 m)(1.414) (Note: I'm using an approximation for √2 rounded to 3 decimal places)
d = 8.5 m is the approximate length of the diagonal of the square rounded to the nearest tenth of a meter.
