Question

Stefan's rectangular bedroom is 12 feet by 9 feet. What is the diagonal distance from one

Answer 1

Answer:

505 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

pythagorean therom = $a^{2} +b^{2}=c^{2}$

a= 15

b=9

$12^{2} +19^{2}=c^{2}$

144+361=505

505 ft

Answer 2

Answer:

the diagonal distance from one corner to the opposite is 15 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

using the pythagorean theorem, we know that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. if a=9 and b=12 we can set up our equation as follows:

9^2 + 12^2 = c^2

81 + 144 = c^2

225 = c^2

the square root of 225 is 15 therefore:

15 = c
