From the information given, this scenario creates a 45-45-90 triangle, allowing us to use the Pythagorean Theorem. 30^2+30^2=x^2. 30^2 is 900, so now you have 900+900=x^2. Add to make 1800=x^2. Now take the square root of both sides. It should come out to be about 42.43 meters.

liq [111]

Answer:

320m

Step-by-step explanation

a rectangle has four sides, two pairs of identical sides. So two sides are 16. So that adds up to 32. Perimeter is all sides added together. so it has to add up to 72. 72 minus 32 is 40, so two of the sides have to be 40. Area is length times width, so 16 times 20, which is 320.
