Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Monica wants to measure the dimensions of her rectangular lawn.
If the longer side of the lawn is BC=(x + 3) feet.
If the diagonal length is AC=(x + 4) feet.
Let the shortest side of lawn is AB=y feet
The angle of rectangle is right angle.
Using diagonal, shortest and longer side to make a right angle triangle whose hypotenuse is length of diagonal.
Using Pythagoreous theorem,
We will ignore the negative value because side of rectangle can't be negative.
