What is the length of the diagonal of a 10 foot by 8 foot rectangle?

Diagonal of a rectangle formula:

Diagonal = √l² + w²
Diagonal = √10² + 8²
Diagonal = √100 + 64
Diagonal = √164
Diagonal = 12.806 feet.

Or you can use the pythagorean theorem. The diagonal of a rectangle is the hypotenuse of a triangle.

a² + b² = c² ; where a and b represents the lengths of the triangle and c is the hypothenuse. In this case, the lengths are 10 ft and 8ft.

10² + 8² = 100 + 64 = 164 ; This represents c².
c = √c² = √164 = 12.806 ft

Taya2010 [7]
Area of larger circle:  3.14 x 5^2 = 78.5

Area of small circle: 3.14 x 2^2 = 12.56

Difference of the 2 areas: 78.5 - 12.56 = 65.94

Probability of being in large circle but not small circle: 65.94 / 78.5 = 0.84 = 84%


 The answer is A) 84%
