In the diagram, ABCD is a square. Find PR.
L, M, N, O, are midpoints of sides.
Side AB = 12
PR is the diagonal of the square PQRS. So we can find the sidelength of this square and it will be in the same ratio as the diagonal of the square ABCD.
△DOS∼△DAP Therefore,
is the side of the triangle and lets name it . Due to symmetry, so,
thus the ratio of diagonals = ratio of sides as all sqaure are similar
