Question 75
The side of a square is 'a' cm. The ratio of its diagonal to its side is:
Solution
The side of a square is 'a' cm.
$$\left(Diagonal\right)^2\ =\ a^2\ +\ a^2$$ [According to the pythagoras theorem.]
$$\left(Diagonal\right)^2\ =\ 2a^2$$
$$Diagonal=\sqrt{\ 2}a$$
Ratio of its diagonal to its side = $$\sqrt{\ 2}a : a$$
=Â $$\sqrt{\ 2} : 1$$
