Answer:
If both sides are integers, one side will be 4 feet and the other will be 6 feet. The other solution is the symmetrical solution (4 feet instead of 6 feet, and 6 feet instead of 4 feet).
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a rectangular blanket, that has a diagonal that measures h=7.21 feet.
The two sides of the rectangle a and b can be related to the diagonal h by the Pithagorean theorem:
![a^2+b^2=h^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a%5E2%2Bb%5E2%3Dh%5E2)
Then, we can express one side in function of the other as:
![a^2+b^2=h^2\\\\a^2=h^2-b^2\\\\a=\sqrt{h^2-b^2}=\sqrt{7.21-b^2}=\sqrt{52-b^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a%5E2%2Bb%5E2%3Dh%5E2%5C%5C%5C%5Ca%5E2%3Dh%5E2-b%5E2%5C%5C%5C%5Ca%3D%5Csqrt%7Bh%5E2-b%5E2%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B7.21-b%5E2%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B52-b%5E2%7D)
Then, if we define b, we get the value of a that satisfies the equation.
A graph of values of a and b is attached.
If both side a and b are integers, we can see in the graph that are only two solutions: (b=4, a=6) and (a=4, b=6).
