Answer:

Length of a diagonal = 41 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A rectangle has a width of 9 units and a length of 40 units.

To Find : the length of a diagonal

Solution :

Since all angles of rectangle measures 90°.

So, to find length of diagonal use Pythagoras theorem i.e.


(Hypotenuse)^{2}=(Perpendicular )^{2}  + (Base)^{2}


Refer attached figure

Since ΔADC is right angled triangle


So, (AC)^{2}=(AD )^{2}  + (DC)^{2}


Where AC is the diagonal

AD = Length = 40 units

DC= Width = 9 units


Thus, (AC)^{2}=(40 )^{2}  + (9)^{2}


(AC)^{2}=1681


AC=\sqrt{1681}


AC=41


Hence, Length of a diagonal = 41 units

Answer:

£1134

Step-by-step explanation:

0.5%×6 = 3.0% ≈ 3%

\frac{3}{100} × 2200 = 3 × 22 = 66 (we shorten the zeros ⇒ ∅∅)

2200 - 66 = £1134
