We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the diagonal. The diagonal is the same as the hypotenuse of a triangle.

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

Now, solve for the diagonal.

(10)² + (15)² = c²

100 + 225 = c²

325 = c²

√325 = √c²

18.0277... = c

Round if necessary.

18.0277... = 18.03

Therefore, the diagonal of the rectangle is approximately 18.03cm.

Best of Luck!

Answer:

18.02 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A diagonal makes a rectangle into two right triangles. So if we use the Pythagorean theorem we can find the hypotenuse which is the diagonals.

Remember, because we know the length and width, we know the two sides.

10^2 + 15^2 = c^2

100+225 = c^2

325 = c^2

18.027 ≈ c

Simplify the expression below.
natita [175]

Answer:

3m - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step by Step:

Equation= 6m³ - 16m² + 15m - 40/ 2m² + 5

Factor out 2m² from 6m³ - 16m²:

Factor out 5 from expression:

2m²(3m - 8) + 5(3m - 8)/2m² + 5

Factor out 3m - 8:

(3m - 8)(2m² + 5)/2m² + 5

Rude the fraction with 2m² + 5:

3m - 8 is the answer

I hope this helped!

Andrej [43]

Answer:

Rotation then dilation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation changes the size. So the result is a similar not congruent triangle. The other transformations move the figure around on the plane.
