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

Pythagoras tells us that the diagonal is √(9²+40²) = 41.

Evaluate the expression 3.14(a2 + ab) when a = 4 and b = 3. (Input decimals only, such as 12.71, as the answer.)
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

87.92

Step-by-step explanation:

3.14(a² + ab)  where  a = 4  and  b = 3

Plug the given numbers into the appropriate values.  Remember to follow PEMDAS.

3.14((4)² + (4)(3))

3.14(16 + 12)

3.14(28)

87.92
