How do you find the diagonal of the rectangle if the length is #120cm# and the width is #70cm#?

Answer 1

Abigail Allen

#10sqrt193#

#d# = #sqrt(L^2 + W^2#

#d# = #sqrt(120^2 + 70^2#

#d# = #sqrt(14400 + 4900#

#d# = #sqrt(19300#

#d# = #10sqrt193#

To find the diagonal of a rectangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem. The formula is: diagonal = √(length^2 + width^2). Plugging in the values, the diagonal of the rectangle with a length of 120cm and a width of 70cm is approximately 137.09cm.
