What is the length of a diagonal of a square with a side length of 8?

Solution:

Given, the side length = 8 units.

We have to find the length of a diagonal of a square.

Diagonal of square = √2(side)

The length of a diagonal of a square of side 'a' units is given by √2(a)

Diagonal = √2(8)

= (1.414)(8)

= 11.312 square units.

Therefore, the length of a diagonal is 11.312 square units.

What is the length of a diagonal of a square with a side length of 8?

Summary:

The length of a diagonal of a square with a side length of 8 is 11.312 square units.
