Diagonal of Square
Diagonals of square is equal to a√2, where a is the side of the square. The length of both diagonals of a square is equal to each other. The relation between diagonals and sides of a square is given by Pythagoras Theorem.
Length of Diagonal of Square
Length of diagonal of a square is calculated using Pythagoreas Theorem as,
Hypotenuse2 = Base2 + Perpendicular2
Hence,
Diagonal2 = Side2 + Side2
d2 = s2 + s2
d2 = 2s2
d = s√2
Square in Maths – Area, Perimeter, Examples & Applications
Square is a type of quadrilateral with four sides. What distinguishes a square from other quadrilaterals is that all four sides of a square are of equal length, and all four interior angles are right angles (90 degrees).
