The area of the Square field is 1/2 of hectare. Find the length of its diagonal in metres.
plz, explain.........

Let the length of each side of square = sNow, area of square = 0.5 ha = 5000 m2    as 1 ha = 10000 m2Now, s2 = 5000s = 5000 = 502 mNow, length of the diagonal = 2s = 50×2×2 = 100 m

1 HECTARE = 10,000 m
1/2 HECTARE = 5000 m
SIDE OF SQUARE = sqrt (5000)
SIDE OF SQUARE = 70.71 m
BY PYTHAGORAS THEOREM, H2 = B2 + P2                
H2 = 70.712+70.712
H2 = 141.422                                                               
H = sqrt (141.422)          
H = 141.42
