A right triangle is formed with two legs of 6√2 ft and the diagonal as the hypotenuse.
a² + b² = c² {the Pythagorean Theorem}
(6√2)² + (6√2)² = c² {substituted 6√2 in for the legs, a and b}
36(2) + 36(2) = c² {evaluated the exponents}
72 + 72 = c² {multiplied}
144 = c² {added}
c = 12 {took the square root of each side}
