The diagonals of a square measure 14 cm. Which is the length of a side of the square? f.142√ cm g.72√ cm h.143√ cm j.73√ cm

1 answer:

8 0

Since it is a square, the diagonals are congruent. If a square is split like this, it becomes two congruent right triangles. The relationship between the sides and hypotenuse is a 1: $\sqrt{2}$ ratio. So if the diagonal of a square is 14 cm, then the side length would be 14/ $\sqrt{2}$ , which is approximately 9.899. I don't understand what the answer choices are, but you should be able to square root the numbers to determine the answer.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

In March 2007, the unemployment rate was 4.4 percent. In August 2008 was 6.1 percent. We need to remember that the unemployment rate equals the number of unemployed people divided by the people in the labor force.

Now, if we consider that the labor force remained constant during this period of time (according to the problem) then this would mean that the number of unemployed people actually increased during this period of 17 months.
