Answer:

29.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the space diagonal can be found to be the root of the squares of the three orthogonal edge lengths. For a cube, those edge lengths are all the same, so the diagonal length is ...

d = √(17^2 + 17^2 +17^2) = 17√3 ≈ 29.4 . . . . cm

_____

Consider a rectangular prism with edge lengths a, b, c. Then the face diagonal of the face perpendicular to edge "a" has length ...

(face diagonal)^2 = (b^2 +c^2)

and the space diagonal has length ...

(space diagonal)^2 = a^2 + (face diagonal)^2 = a^2 +b^2 +c^2

So, the length of the space diagonal is ...

space diagonal = √(a^2 +b^2 +c^2)

when the prism is a cube, these are all the same (a=b=c). This is the formula we used above.

Hello,

x² + 5x + 6 = 0

a = 1 ; b = 5 ; c = 6

∆ = b² - 4ac = 5² - 4 × 1 × 6 = 25 - 24 = 1 > 0

2 solutions :

x_{1} =  \frac{ - b -  \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}  =  \frac{ - 5 - 1}{2 \times 1}  =  \frac{ - 6}{2}  =  - 3

x_{2} =  \frac{ - b  +   \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}  =  \frac{ - 5  + 1}{2 \times 1}  =  \frac{ - 4}{2}  =  - 2

S = { -3 ; -2}
