In an older television set, the screen height is 0.75 times the screen width.

Mathematics

The television set has a rectangular shape. The diagonal of this rectangle along with its width and length together form a right angular triangle.
This means that we can apply the Pythagorean theorem which states that:
(diagonal)^2 = (length)^2 + (width)^2

Let the width be w. We know that the length is 0.75 times the width, this means that: length = 0.75 w

Substitute in the above equation:
(20)^2 = (0.75w)^2 + (w)^2
400 = 0.5625 w^2 + w^2
400 = 1.5625 w^2
w^2 = 256
w = 16

This means that the width of the screen is 16 in.

Answer: The perimeter is 20 cm

Step-by-step explanation: The top and bottom are same length, so 6+6, and the sides are the same length, so 4+4 don’t forget it’s cm and it becomes 20 cm.

musickatia [10]
Not sure what the length of the rectangle is but to find perimeter of a rectangle you can use the following formula

2w+2l= perimeter

The reason we multiply both the length and width by two is because there are two ends of the width and two ends of the length.

The other formula that would also work is as follows

w+w+l+l= perimeter


Hope it helps

What is 7/10 + 7/10 =
Nonamiya [84]

The correct answer is 1.4 or 1 4/10

I did this by turning 7/10 into a decimal which is 0.7.

Now I just add 0.7 + 0.7.

For that equation i got 1.4

This would equal 1 4/10
