The answer is: 12 centimeters.

The explanation is shown below:

1. By definition, all four sides of the square are equal and the diagonals are equal too.

2. Keeping the information above on mind, you know that AC and BD are equal:

[tex]AC=BD[/tex]

3. Then, the length of BD is twice BE. So, you can calculate it as following:

[tex]BD=2BE[/tex]

[tex]BD=2(6cm)\\BD=12cm[/tex]

4. Therefore, the lenght of AC is:

[tex]AC=12cm[/tex]
