Formulas for diagonal e, using sides and height
Using the side length a and b
The diagonal e forms a right triangle with the height h and the side (a - y) . The diagonal e forms the hypotenuse and can be calculated according to the Pythagorean theorem.
First, the length of y has to be calculated, which in turn can be calculated from b and h :
\(\displaystyle y =\sqrt{b^2-h^2} \)
The diagonal e can now be calculated using the following formula:
\(\displaystyle e =\sqrt{(a-y)^2+h^2} \)
Use of the side lengths c and d
Alternatively, you can calculate with the side lengths c and d . To do this, the leg of the left triangle is first calculated:
\(\displaystyle x =\sqrt{d^2-h^2} \)
In the following formula, x is added to the side length c .
\(\displaystyle e =\sqrt{(c+x)^2+h^2} \)
Formula for diagonal e, using the angle
If the height is not known, the diagonal e can be calculated using an angle.
\(\displaystyle e =\sqrt{(a^2+b^2) - (2 · a · b · cos(β))} \)
