length of diagonal on one face=x(√2) units  By Phythagorean theorem, required distance=(√((x(√2))^2 +x^2 ))=x(√3)    In 3D coordinates let one vertex be the origin  and an opposite vertex be  ((x),(x),(x) ).  ⇒∣ ((x),(x),(x) ) ∣=(√(x^2 +x^2 +x^2 ))=x(√3).

$${length}\:{of}\:{diagonal}\:{on}\:{one}\:{face}={x}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\:{units} \\ $$$${By}\:{Phythagorean}\:{theorem},\:{required}\:{distance}=\sqrt{\left({x}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }={x}\sqrt{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$${In}\:\mathrm{3}{D}\:{coordinates}\:{let}\:{one}\:{vertex}\:{be}\:{the}\:{origin} \\ $$$${and}\:{an}\:{opposite}\:{vertex}\:{be}\:\begin{pmatrix}{{x}}\\{{x}}\\{{x}}\end{pmatrix}. \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mid\begin{pmatrix}{{x}}\\{{x}}\\{{x}}\end{pmatrix}\:\mid=\sqrt{{x}^{\mathrm{2}} +{x}^{\mathrm{2}} +{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }={x}\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}. \\ $$
