Is anyone able to help me with this question:
A rectangle with sides 4 cm and 6 cm has the same diagonal as a square.
What is the length of the side of the square.
Give your answer as a surd.

Answer 1

Answer:

not sure but this info might help you.

Step-by-step explanation:

the diagonal in the rectangle splits it into two right angled triangles, hence the hypotenuse is the diagonal.

once you find the measurement, we all know that a square has all sides equal and the diagonal splits it into 2 equilateral triangles. so, the side of the square =the diagonal's measurement.
