the diagonal of a square equals square root 2 times the side lenght using 1.4 for the square root of 2 what is the approximate lenght in feet from one corner to an opposite corner of a square park that is 700 feet onn a side

1 answer

The diagonal of a square is calculated by multiplying the square root of 2 by the length of one side. Given that the length of one side of the square park is 700 feet, we can calculate the length of the diagonal using the approximate value for the square root of 2 (1.4).

Diagonal = √2 * Side Length
Diagonal = 1.4 * 700
Diagonal ≈ 980 feet

Therefore, the approximate length from one corner to an opposite corner of the square park is 980 feet.
