Question

If the length of the diagonal square is 12sqrt(2 cm) then what will be the area of the square?​

Answer 1

We are given the diagonal of a square and have to find its area

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the diagonal given in question to be= $\sqrt{2}$ cm

Let the sides of the square be 'a'

Using pythagoras theorem,

$a^{2} +a^{2} =(\sqrt{2} )^{2}$

2$a^{2}$=2

a=1 cm                      (Taking the positive value)

Now, area of square is given by=

=$a^{2}$

= 1 cm sq
