Question

The area of a rectangle is 44 square units. Its length measures 4 units. Find the length of its diagonal. Round to the nearest tenth of a unit.

Answer 1

Answer:

√(137)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you will need to find the other side length.....then you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the diagonal:

L x W = 44

4 x W = 44

W =11

Now the Pythag, Theorem:

 diagonal^2 = 4^2 + 11^2

        d^2 = 16+121

         d^2 = 137

          d = √(137)
