Question

If the length of diagonal of square is $\sqrt{2}$ then what is the length of each side ??

Answer 1

Let the side be of x cm. Now,. Diagonal of Square = √2 × side. => 6√2 = √2 × x. = x.

Answer 2

Formula for finding the length d of either diagonal of a square is

d = s√2

where

• s is the length of one of the 4 congruent sides of the square
• √2 is the positive square root of 2

d = √2 cm is the exact length of a diagonal of a square with each side 1 cm long.

Length of Each Side = 1 cm
