The formula for the diagonal of a square is d = sā2, where s is the length of one side of the square. Since the area of the square garden is 400 m^2, the side length can be found by taking the square root of the area.
ā400 = 20
Therefore, the length of one side of the square is 20 m.
Using the formula for the diagonal, we can calculate:
d = 20ā2 ā 28.28 m
Therefore, the diagonal of the square garden is approximately 28.28 m.
The answer is 28.28 m.
