Answer:

b 14 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Width of the rectangle = 7 ft

Diagonal length of the rectangle = 16 ft

Let the length of the rectangle = l ft

Then,

\[l^{2}+7^{2}=16^{2}\]

\[=> l^{2}+49=256\]

\[=> l^{2}=207\]

\[=> l=sqrt{207}\]

\[=> l=14.39\]

This can be approximate by 14 ft

Among the given options, option B is the correct one.

Answer: b. 14ft

Step-by-step explanation:

In the rectangle, the opposite sides are equal. The diagonal divides the rectangle into two equal right angle triangles. The diagonal represents the hypotenuse of both right angle triangles. The length and width represents the opposite and adjacent sides of the right angle triangles.

To determine the length, L of the rectangle, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

Therefore,

16² = L² + 7²

256 = L² + 49

L² = 256 - 49 = 207

L = √207

L = 14.38

the closest to the length of this rectangle in feet is

14ft

Circle O has a circumference of 36tt cm. what is length of the radius r
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

5.73cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Circumference of the circle = 36cm

Unknown

Length of the radius = ?

Lets represent the radius by r

Solution

The circumference of a circle is the defined as the perimeter of a circle. The formula is given as:

            Circumference of a circle = 2πr

Since the unknown is r, we make it the subject of the formula:

           r = \frac{circumference of the circle}{2π}

          r = \frac{36}{2 x 3.142} = \frac{36}{6.284} = 5.73cm
