Answer:
a ≈ 8.7 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , that is
a² + 5² = 10²
a² + 25 = 100 ( subtract 25 from both sides )
a² = 75 ( take square root of both sides )
a =
≈ 8.7 ( to the nearest tenth )
Area of a rectangle is the product of length times width. Thus, here we need the product of 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches.
One way of doing this follows: 8.5
8.5
----------
93.5 square inches
Rounding up, this comes out to 94 square inches.
Alternatively: 17 187
---- * 11 = ------- = 93.5 square inches; rounded, that's 94.
