The area of a square is stored in a double variable named area. write an expression whose value is length of the diagonal of the square java

First of all, a bit of theory: since the area of a square is given by

where s is the length of the square. So, if we invert this function we have

.

Moreover, the diagonal of a square cuts the square in two isosceles right triangles, whose legs are the sides, so the diagonal is the hypothenuse and it can be found by

So, the diagonal is the side length, multiplied by the square root of 2.

With that being said, your function could be something like this:

double diagonalFromArea(double area) {

double side = Math.sqrt(area);

double diagonal = side * Math.sqrt(2);

return diagonal;

}

14.3

step-by-step explanation:

add all the numbers together.

9 + 12 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 17 = 86

now, divide 86 by how many numbers we have: 6.

86 / 6 = 14.3
