Question

The area of a square is 576 cm^2. Find the length of its side and diagonal.[If root 2= 1.41]

Answer 1

area of square is a²
=576cm²
side =√area of square
side=√576
side=24cm
diagonal=side×√2
=24×1.41
=33.84cm

Answer 2

Given:

Area of square = 576 cm²

√2 = 1.41

To find:

Length of the sides = ?

Solution:

As we know,

⇒ $Side =\sqrt{area \ of \ square}$

On putting the values, we get

⇒ $Side=\sqrt{576}$

⇒ $Side = 24 \ cm$

Diagonal will be:

⇒ $Diagonal=Side\times \sqrt{2}$

On estimating the values, we get

⇒ $24\times 1.41$

⇒ $33.84 \ cm$

Thus the correct answer will be "33.84 cm".
