Mathematics

Answer:

11.4 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagoras theorem for a right-angled triangle

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

if you cut the rectangle in half, it will become a right angled triangle.

a and b are two sides of the rectangle, while c is the diagonal or hypothenuse

so 9^2 + 7^2 = c^2

81 + 49  = c^2

c^ 2 = 130

square root 130 = c

you should get approximately 11.4 metres

Monica wants to measure the dimensions of her rectangular lawn. If the longer side of the lawn is (x + 3) feet and the diagonal
Juliette [100K]
Let us try and solve it analytically. We have that the side=x+3  together with the short side=s and the diagonal=x+4 satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem. Then we have that (x+4)^2=(x+3)^2+s^2. This yields s^2+x^2+6x+9=x^2+8x+16
which yields s^2=2x+7, hence a) is the correct answer.
