The Diagonal of a Squared calculator Rectanglecomputes the length of the diagonal of a rectangle.

INSTRUCTIONS:  Choose your preferred length units and enter the following:

• (a) Length of Side a of Rectangle
• (b) Length of Side b of Rectangle

Diagonal Length (c): The calculator returns the length of the diagonal (c) in feet.  However, this can be automatically converted to other length units (e.g. centimeters) via the pull-down menu.

The Math / Science

A rectangle is a four sided polygon (quadrilateral) with four squared corners (90^o).  The diagonal is computed using the Pythagorean formula.

Plumbing Calculators

• Rolling Offsets (Run and Travel)  – The Rolling Offset Rolling Offset Lengths Pipe Grading function computes the run and travel length a rolling offset based on the offsets and fittings. (see diagram).
• Diagonal of a Square - This is a simple calculation to assist in computing the diagonal of a square.
• Diagonal of a Box - This computes the length of the diagonal of a box (T) based on sides of length R, S and U.
• Flow Rate - This computes flow rate based on the total volume and the time it took to accumulate.
• Pipe Flow Volume  - This computes the total volume from a pipe based on the flow rated and the duration of flow.
• Weight of Water in a Tank - Computes the weight of water in a cylindrical tank based on the radius and height (or length).
• Weight of Water in a Pipe - Computes the weight of water or other substances in a pipe based on the dimension and material density.
• Weight of Sea Water in pipe - Computes the weight of sea water in a cylinder based on the radius and height (or length)
• Pressure Head - The Potential Gravity-Fed Water Pressure from a Tank (a.k.a. Pressure Head) based on the height of storage.
• Pipe Volume - Computes the volume in a pipe
• Pipe Surface Area - Computes the surface area of a pipe.
• Pipe Coating Amount - Computes the volume of coating material for a pipe such as paint, polyethylene, polyurethane, zinc, bitumen, FBE or mortar.
• Pipe Grading - Compute the drop needed over a run to maintain a grade (e.g., 4" over 12')
• Volume of Water in a Tank (e.g. hot water tanks),
• Volume of a Spherical Container
• Weight of Water in a Spherical Container
