First you find the diagonal of one side.
\n" ); document.write( "10^2+10^2=d^2
\n" ); document.write( "100+100=d^2
\n" ); document.write( "d^2=200
\n" ); document.write( "d=sqrt200
\n" ); document.write( "d=14.14
\n" ); document.write( "Now you have a right triangle with a short side= 10, a lomg side=14.14 & the cube diagonal as the hypotenuse:
\n" ); document.write( "10^2+14.14^2=d^2
\n" ); document.write( "100+200=d^2
\n" ); document.write( "d^2=300
\n" ); document.write( "d=sqrt300
\n" ); document.write( "d=17.32 for the length of the diagonal of the cube.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
