never, b/c its going to creat a prependiuclar in the middle so using phytogorean theorem u can check it, take half of the diagonals and see, so 5^2+12^2 doesnt not equal 26^2 if the diagonals were twice as long then yes b/c 10^2+24^2=26^2

d1 = 10 cm (1/2) x 10 x d2 = 120 d2 = 24 L ² = 5 ² + 12 ² L = 13 cm is length of one side

Never. The Side would be sqrt(5^2+12^2) = 13 cm

the length of side^2=5^2+12^2=25+144=169
the length of side=sqrt169=13
