Question

A square with diagonals is shown. The distance from one point to the middle point is 3. The length from the center point to another point is 3. What is the approximate side length of the square?

Answer 1

Answer: C (3rd option)

Explanation:

E2020

Answer 2

4.24

Explanation:

Since it is the midpoint, it means that the entire diagonal will measure twice, that is 3 * 2 = 6

To calculate the length of the sides, we can do it by means of Pythagoras, since it is a square a = b

c ^ 2 = a ^ 2 + b ^ 2

c ^ 2 = 2 * a ^ 2

6 ^ 2 = 2 * a ^ 2

a ^ 2 = 36/2

a = 4.24

therefore, it means that the sides of the square measure 4.24
