\n" ); document.write( "= 100ft and the other = 50ft.
\n" ); document.write( "The slope from the ends of the sides
\n" ); document.write( "is the hypotenuse. This is the diagonal.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "100^2 + 50^2 = diagonal^2
\n" ); document.write( "10000 + 2500 = diagonal^2
\n" ); document.write( "12500 = diagonal^2
\n" ); document.write( " diagonal = square root of 12500
\n" ); document.write( " diagonal = 111.8 = 112 ft.
