Answer:

[tex]15\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula we can use is

[tex]d=\sqrt{2} *a[/tex]

Where d is the length of the diagonal and a is the length of the side of the square

Since, the floppies are in square shape and side length is 15, so a = 15

We simply put it into the formula and get length of diagonal.

[tex]d=\sqrt{2} *a\\d=\sqrt{2} *15\\d=15\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Hence, diagonal length is  [tex]15\sqrt{2}[/tex]
