Given that the diagonal AC of square ABCD measures 5.2 cm, what is the area of the square?
Explanation
To find the area of the square, first calculate the side length using the diagonal. The side length (s) is given by s = diagonal / √2 = 5.2 / 1.414 ≈ 3.676 cm. Then, area = s² ≈ 3.676² = 13.52 sq.cm.
