STEP 1: find diagonal $ d2 $
To find diagonal $ d2 $ use formula:
$$ A = \dfrac{ d_1 \cdot d_2 }{ 2 } $$After substituting $A = 90\, \text{cm}$ and $d_1 = 15\, \text{cm}$ we have:
$$ 90\, \text{cm} = \dfrac{ 15\, \text{cm} \cdot d_2 }{ 2 } $$$$ 90\, \text{cm} \cdot 2 = 15\, \text{cm} \cdot d_2 $$$$ 180\, \text{cm} = 15\, \text{cm} \cdot d_2 $$$$ d_2 = \dfrac{ 180\, \text{cm} }{ 15\, \text{cm} } $$$$ d_2 = 12 $$STEP 2: find side $ a $
To find side $ a $ use formula:
$$ d_1^2 + d_2^2 = 4 \cdot a^2 $$After substituting $d_1 = 15\, \text{cm}$ and $d_2 = 12\, \text{cm}^0$ we have:
$$ \left( 15\, \text{cm} \right)^{2} + 12 = 4 \cdot a^2 $$ $$ 225\, \text{cm}^2 + 144 = 4 \cdot a^2 $$ $$ 4 \cdot a^2 = 369\, \text{cm}^2 $$ $$ a^2 = \frac{ 369\, \text{cm}^2 }{ 4 } $$ $$ a^2 = \frac{ 369 }{ 4 }\, \text{cm}^2 $$ $$ a = \sqrt{ \frac{ 369 }{ 4 }\, \text{cm}^2 } $$$$ a = \frac{ 3 \sqrt{ 41}}{ 2 }\, \text{cm} $$
