Answer:

5.83 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The card is a rectangular shaped object, drawing a diagonal from one corner to the other, divides the rectangle into two right angled triangles with the diagonals as the hypothenuse.

Using Pythagoras theorem.

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Given;

Side a = 3

Side b = 5

Substituting the given values;

c^2 = 3^2 + 5^2

c = √(9+25)

c = √34

c = 5.83 inches

What is the length of side a?
Bad White [126]

\huge \bf༆ Answer ༄

According to given figure, The Triangle BDC is a right angled Triangle (Angle D = 90°)

So, we can apply Pythagoras theorem to find the Side a (Hypotenuse)

Now, let's solve ~

  • \sf \: BD {}^{2}   + CD {}^{2} =   BC {}^{2}

  • \sf4 {}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  =  {a}^{2}

  • \sf16 + 9 =  {a}^{2}

  • \sf \: a {}^{2}  = 25

  • \sf \: a =  \sqrt{25}

  • \sf \: a  = 5 \: units

Therefore, Length of side a is 5 units ~
