Answer 1

To find the length of the diagonal of a square, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

Let's assume the length of one side of the square is x.

Since the area of the square is given as 400 m^2, we have the equation:

x^2 = 400

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

x = √400

x = 20 m

Now, to find the length of the diagonal (d), we can use the Pythagorean theorem:

d^2 = x^2 + x^2

d^2 = 20^2 + 20^2

d^2 = 400 + 400

d^2 = 800

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

d = √800

d ≈ 28.28 m

Therefore, the length of the diagonal is approximately 28.28 m.
