Formula To Calculate Area, Perimeter and Diagonal of a Square using its side

diagonal = sqrt(2) x side;

area = ( diagonal x diagonal ) / 2.0
OR
area = ( diagonal x diagonal ) * 0.5
OR
area = side x side;

Perimeter = 4 x side;

Note: All the sides of a square are equal. Both the diagonals of the square are of equal length.
