The diameter of the table top is the diagonal of the square shelf
\n" ); document.write( "S=side of square d=diagonal(and diameter)=1 m
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2s%5E2=d%5E2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"s%5E2=%28d%5E2%29%2F2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"s=sqrt%28%28d%5E2%29%2F2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"s=sqrt%281%2F2%29m\"$ = $\"%281%2Fsqrt%282%29%29m\"$
