Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
It could be a positive square root l like √10 ( the number not being a perfect square).
He would have obtained this value from the application of the Pythagoras theorem. For example the length and width of the rectangle might have been 3 and 1 foot respectively, so the diagonal would have length √(3^2 + 1^2) = √10.
He could give an estimate of the length to nearest hundredth using his calculator. This would be 3.16 feet.
I think its like if you got 80% on a quiz and 20% on the exam then your grade would be 60% which is usually a F

EXPLANATION
The given polynomial is
where a=1,b=k, c=30
Let the zeroes of this polynomial be m and n.
Then the sum of roots is
and the product of roots is
The square difference of the zeroes is given by the expression.
From the question, this difference is 169.
This implies that:
We substitute the values of k into the equation and solve for x.
The zeroes are given by;
