To find side $ a $ use formula:

$$ d_1^2 + d_2^2 = 4 \cdot a^2 $$

After substituting $d_1 = 4\, \text{cm}$ and $d_2 = 2.8\, \text{cm}$ we have:

$$ \left( 4\, \text{cm} \right)^{2} + \left( 2.8\, \text{cm} \right)^{2} = 4 \cdot a^2 $$ $$ 16\, \text{cm}^2 + 7.84\, \text{cm}^2 = 4 \cdot a^2 $$ $$ 4 \cdot a^2 = 23.84\, \text{cm}^2 $$ $$ a^2 = \frac{ 23.84\, \text{cm}^2 }{ 4 } $$ $$ a^2 = 5.96\, \text{cm}^2 $$ $$ a = \sqrt{ 5.96\, \text{cm}^2 } $$$$ a = 2.4413\, \text{cm} $$
