The perimeter of a square is 40 cm.
\n" ); document.write( " what is the length of the diagonal in simplest radical form.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Sides of the square (a * b) = 10 cm
\n" ); document.write( "c^2 = a^2 + b^2
\n" ); document.write( "Diagonal (c)
\n" ); document.write( "c = \"Sqrt%2810%5E2+%2B+10%5E2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "c = \"Sqrt%28200%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Factor to reveal perfect square
\n" ); document.write( "c = \"Sqrt%28100%2A2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Extract the square
\n" ); document.write( "c = \"10%2ASqrt%282%29\"; is the diagonal
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
