actually nvm just thought about it in my head in bed
it should be easy enough, keep trying. hint; sqrt(2)*the side

But the square has to have a rational side length, so there's not going to be a point on a diagonal that's a rational distance from both of the vertices it connects.

The question in the OP asks you to find a rational distance between a point on the square and the vertices, not everywhere in the plane you fucking brainlet. There is no such rational distance. Now show it.
