STEP 1: find side $ a $

To find side $ a $ use formula:

$$ r = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a }{ 2 } $$

After substituting $r = 30.48\, \text{cm}$ we have:

$$ 30.48\, \text{cm} = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a }{ 2 } $$ $$ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a = 30.48\, \text{cm} \cdot 2 $$ $$ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a = 60.96\, \text{cm} $$ $$ a = \dfrac{ 60.96\, \text{cm} }{ \sqrt{ 3 } } $$ $$ a \approx 35.1953\, \text{cm} $$

STEP 2: find diagonal $ d $

To find diagonal $ d $ use formula:

$$ d = 2 \cdot a $$

After substituting $a = 35.1953\, \text{cm}$ we have:

$$ d = 2 \cdot 35.1953\, \text{cm} $$ $$ d \approx 70.3905\, \text{cm} $$
