To find the answer, we can use the Pythagoras theorem, where:

[tex]\sqrt{a^{2}+ b^{2} } =c^{2}[/tex]

Where a and b is the side length and c is the diagonal.

In this case:

[tex]\sqrt{56^{2} +56^{2} }

\\ =\sqrt{6272} \\ =79.19596... \\ =79.2(correct to 3 sig. fig.)[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is 79.2cm

Hope it helps!
