Answer:

12\sqrt{2}\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the length side of the square

we know that

The area of a square is equal to

A=b^{2}

where

b is the length side

we have

A=144\ cm^2

substitute in the formula of area

144=b^{2}

solve for b

square root both sides

b=12\ cm

step 2

Find the length of the diagonal

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

d^2=b^2+b^2

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

substitute the given values

d^2=12^2+12^2

d^2=288

square root both sides

d=\sqrt{288}\ cm

simplify

d=12\sqrt{2}\ cm

What is the relationship between the ratios? 16/72 and 8/32 Drag and drop to complete the statement. The ratios are . proportion
Yuki888 [10]
These ratios are not proportional.

Explanation:

If the ratio 8:32 were simplified, it would equal 1:4 because they can both be divided by 8. But since 16 x 4 does not equal 72, they cannot be divided by 4 to make a simplified ratio such as the first example.

Hope I helped, and good luck!

Given:

The vertices of the rectangle ABCD are A(0,1), B(2,4), C(6,0), D(4,-3).

To find:

The area of the rectangle.

Solution:

Distance formula:

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Using the distance formula, we get

AB=\sqrt{(2-0)^2+(4-1)^2}

AB=\sqrt{(2)^2+(3)^2}

AB=\sqrt{4+9}

AB=\sqrt{13}

Similarly,

BC=\sqrt{(6-2)^2+(0-4)^2}

BC=\sqrt{(4)^2+(-4)^2}

BC=\sqrt{16+16}

BC=\sqrt{32}

BC=4\sqrt{2}

Now, the length of the rectangle is AB=\sqrt{13} and the width of the rectangle is BC=4\sqrt{2}. So, the area of the rectangle is:

A=length \times width

A=\sqrt{13}\times 4\sqrt{2}

A=4\sqrt{26}

A\approx 20

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 20 square units.

6. During an emergency exercise, a submarine dives 37 ft, rises 16 ft, and
Masteriza [31]

During an emergency exercise, a submarine dives 37 ft, rises 16 ft, and

then dives 18 ft. The net change in the submarine's position = - 37 + 16 - 18

Net change is the difference between a security's closing price for a given trading period and its closing price for the current trading session. The term "net change" for stock prices often refers to a daily time frame, therefore the net change for the specific day in question might be either positive or negative.

Therefore, the net change = -39 ft.

What is a net change?

  • Net change is the difference between the quantity of a variable at the end state and the starting state.
  • For example, start with some number. Add 10 to it, subtract 5 from it, again add 7, then subtract 16.
  • The net change will be 10 + 5 + 7 - 16 = 6
  • Whatever number you have started with, the result is 6 more.

Answer :

Length of rectangle = 14m

Width of rectangle = 12m

Explanation :

p = 2l + 2w = 68

l = w + 2

Substitute:

68 = 2(w + 2) + 2w

68 = 2w + 4 + 2w

4w = 64

w = 16

l = 18


I hope this helped out, have a nice day! :D
