Question

ENCHI

Answer 1

Given :

A T.V. is measure by its diagonal.

To Find :

If the height of a 60 inch  T.V. is 32 inches, what is the width.

Solution :

We know, T.V. is rectangular in shape and angle between two sides of rectangular is 90° .

Let, width of T.V. is x.

Applying Pythagoras theorem in sides, we get :

$height^2 + width^2 = hypotenuse^2\\\\23^2 + x^2 = 60^2\\\\x = \sqrt{3600 -529 }\\\\x = 55.42 \ inches$

Therefore, width of T.V. is 55.42 inches.
