Pythagoreas equation h^2 = a^2 + b^2 lets you find the length of the hypotenuse for any right triangle. That’s what you’re after, with both other sides bing 36". References :
The easiest way to do this problem is to turn it into 2 triangles, Its a right triangle, so you know 36^2+36^2 = C^2, so just add the figures and take the sqroot(C^2) to get your answer. References :
36√2 inches
√2=1.414 roughly
so
50.9 in. (approx)

Pythagoras theorem.
You would have built a right-angled triangle with two sides of 36 inches.
Diagonal = square root of (36^2 + 36^2) = 50.91… inches

Roughly 50.91 inches. Use the Pythagorean Theorem.
36^2 + 36^2 = x^2
x = square root of 2592
