If the perimeter of a square is 20, find the length of a diagonal

Mathematics

avanturin [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

7.07

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u>Length</u></h2>

a square has equal length on each side

hence is the perimeter is 20 it means that :

each side is 20/4 = 5

we can make a diagonal line which create 3 right angled triangles

2 sides of the triangle are 5 , this is the base and the height

to find the length we can make use of the Pythagoras theorem

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

c is the hypotenuse ( the diagonal;)

a and b are the opposite and adjacent

hence :

c^2 = 5 ^2 + 5^2

c^2 = 50

c = \sqrt{50}

c = 7.071

to 3sf

<h3><u>diagonal length  = 7.07</u></h3>

Please help with Volume
Archy [21]

Given:

Length of the cuboid tank = 4 m

Breadth = 2.5 m

Height = 2.4 m

One third of the tank is filled with water.

1 cubic meter = 1000 liters.

To find:

The quantity of the water in the tank.

Solution:

Volume of a cuboid is:

V=l\times b\times h

Where, l is length, b is breadth and h is the height.

The volume of the tank is :

V=4\times 2.5\times 2.4

V=24

Volume of tank is 24 cubic meter.

One third of the tank is filled with water. So, the volume of the water is

\dfrac{24}{3}=8

The volume of water is 8 cubic meters.

We have,

1 cubic meter = 1000 liters.

8 cubic meter = 8000 liters.

Therefore, the quantity of the water in the tank is 8000 liters.

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A tree that is 100 feet tall casts a shadow that is 150 feet long ...

The angle at which the ray of the sun hit the ground is that which has a tangent equal to 100 / 150 or 2/3. This angle is equal to 33.69. Thus, the answer is letter B. 34°
