The diagonal of a square equals squared to times the side length using 1.4 for the square root of 2 what is the approximately length in feet from one corner to the opposite corner of a square park that is 700 ft on a side

1 answer

To find the length of the diagonal of a square, you can use the formula:

d=s2

where d is the diagonal and s is the side length of the square.

In this case, the side length of the square park is 700 feet, and you are using 21.4.

Now, substitute s=700 feet into the formula:

d=700×1.4

Now, calculate it:

d=980 feet

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