3.0
3.5
4.2
4.9
HELP ASAP

Answer 1

4.2 because of the pathagreom therom thingy (idk how to spell it)
but a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Answer 2

The approximate side length of the square is 4.2 units.

Solution-

Properties of diagonals of square

1. The diagonals of a square bisect each other and meet at 90°
2. The diagonals of a square bisect its angles.
3. The diagonals of a square are equal.

Let us assume that the side length is x.

So, applying Pythagoras Theorem,

`\Rightarrow 3^2+3^2=x^2`

`\Rightarrow x^2=9+9`

`\Rightarrow x^2=18`

`\Rightarrow x=√(18)`

`\Rightarrow x=4.24\approx 4.2`

Therefore, the approximate side length of the square is 4.2 units.
