The diagonal of a square is 2 m longer than a side. find the length of a side

You should've posted a new thread. Ok, I'll let go for now...

You have to say, let the side of the square be x. Then, the diagonal will be x + 2.

By Pythagoras theorem, the diagonal to the square equals the sum of the square of the two sides of your right angled triangle.

So,

$(x+2)^2 = x^2 +x^2$

Now, just solve, and you'll have x, the side of your square.
