Question

Quadrilateral ABCD is a square and the length of BD¯¯¯¯¯ is 6 cm. What is the length of AE¯¯¯¯¯ ? Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

Answer:

3 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:    

We have been given that diagonal BD of a square ABCD is 6 cm long and we are asked to find the length of AE.    

Since we know that diagonals of a square are equal and bisects each other at right angles.

We can find length of segment AE by dividing 6 cm by 2.  

$AE=\frac{6\text{ cm}}{2}$

$AE=3\text{ cm}$

Therefore, length of AE will be 3 cm.
