A graph shows quadrant 1 with the x-axis and y-axis ranging from 0 to positive 5. Data points marked are point A at (1, 2), point B at (3, 2), point C at (3, 4), and point D at (1, 4). A line joins points A to B, B to C, C to D, and D to A, forming a square.
Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the diagonal of the square. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.
A. 2.83
B. 4
C. 4.24
D. 8
