Find the side $ a $ of a square if diagonal $d = \frac{ 73 }{ 5 }$.
Answer
$a = \frac{ 73 \sqrt{ 2}}{ 10 }$
Explanation
To find side $ a $ use formula:
$$ d = \sqrt{ 2 } \cdot a $$After substituting $ d = \frac{ 73 }{ 5 } $ we have:
$$ \frac{ 73 }{ 5 } = \sqrt{ 2 } \cdot a $$ $$ a = \dfrac{ \frac{ 73 }{ 5 } }{ \sqrt{ 2 } } $$ $$ a = \frac{ 73 \sqrt{ 2}}{ 10 } $$This page was created using
