Example Question #11 : How To Find The Length Of The Diagonal Of A Square

Find the length of the diagonal of a square with side lengths of .

Possible Answers:

$3\sqrt2$

$6\sqrt2$

$9\sqrt2$

Correct answer:

$3\sqrt2$

Explanation:

The diagonal of a square is also a hypotenuse of a right triangle with the side lengths as legs of the triangle.

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the diagonal.

$\text{Diagonal}=\sqrt{\text{side length}^2+\text{side length}^2}$

$\text{Diagonal}=\sqrt{2(\text{side length})^2}$

$\text{Diagonal}=(\text{side length})\sqrt2$

For the square given in the question,

$\text{Diagonal}=3\sqrt2$
