PLEASE HELP PLEASE!!!!

Respuesta :

21cm cause a^2 + b^2 = c^2
so 15^2 + 15^2 = 450 and the square root of 450 rounds to 21

The length of a diagonal of the square is 21cm.

What is the diagonal of the square?

A square can have two diagonals. Each of the diagonal can be formed by joining the diagonally opposite vertices of a square.
