Based on the calculations, the dimensions of the rectangle are

  1. Length, L = 156 meters.
  2. Width, w = 65 meters.

<h3>What is a diagonal?</h3>

The diagonal of a rectangle can be defined as a line segment that connects any two (2) of its non-adjacent vertices together while dividing the rectangle into two (2) equal parts.

Mathematically, the length of diagonals of a rectangle can be calculated by using this formula:

d = √(l² + w²)

Where:

  • d is the diagonal of a rectangle.
  • l is the length of a rectangle.
  • w is the width of a rectangle.

Since the ratio of the length to the width is 12:5, we have:

Width, w = 5l/12

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

169 = √(l² + (5l/12)²)

169² = l² + (5l/12)²

169² = l² + (25l²/144)

Length, L = 156 meters.

For the width, we have:

Width, w = 5l/12

Width, w = 5(156)/12

Width, w = 65 meters.

A cement walk 3 ft wide is placed around the outside of a rectangular garden plot that is 20ft by 30ft. Find the cost of the wal
Inessa05 [86]

Let us calculate the area of the walk.

Since the width of the walk is 3 feet, and the walk will be placed all the 4 sides,

Length of the plot including walk = 20 + (2 × 3) = 20 + 6 = 26 feet.

Breadth of the plot including walk = 30 + (2 × 3) = 36 feet.

Area of the plot including walk = 26 × 36 square feet.

Area of the plot = 20 × 30 square feet.

Area of the walk = (26 × 36) - (20 × 30)

= 936 - 600

= 336 square feet.

= \frac{336}{3(3)} square yards

= 37.3 square yards

Cost of the walk per square yard = $12.25.

Therefore, total cost of the walk = 12.25 × 37.3 = $456.92.
