the number isn't large enough to round to the nearest ten thousandths.
that would be the 4th digit to the right of the decimal point, so we would need the 4th and 5th numbers to the right in order to round the answer.
Answer:
Height = 14.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals meet at right angles. Interesting property.
The hypotenuse is the side of the rhombus = 15 cm
One of the sides of the small triangles created by the intersection of the diagonals = 24/2 = 12
You can find the other side of the the triangle by using the Pythagorean Theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
c = 15
a = 12
b = ?
12^2 + b^2 = 15^2
144 + b^2 = 225
b^2 = 225 - 144
b^2 = 81
b = 9
The area of this right angle = 9 * 12/2 = 54
There are 4 of them so 4 * 54 = 216
That's the area of the rhombus.
The h= Area / b
b = 15
h = 216/15
h = 14.4
Let us calculate the area of the walk.
Since the width of the walk is 3 feet, and the walk will be placed all the 4 sides,
Length of the plot including walk = 20 + (2 × 3) = 20 + 6 = 26 feet.
Breadth of the plot including walk = 30 + (2 × 3) = 36 feet.
Area of the plot including walk = 26 × 36 square feet.
Area of the plot = 20 × 30 square feet.
Area of the walk = (26 × 36) - (20 × 30)
= 936 - 600
= 336 square feet.
=
square yards
= 37.3 square yards
Cost of the walk per square yard = $12.25.
Therefore, total cost of the walk = 12.25 × 37.3 = $456.92.
