Question

A rectangular field is 36

Answer 1

Answer:

12meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Lenght = 36 meters

Width = 15 meters

The dimension of the diagonal can be gotten via Pythagoras theorem

D^2= L^2+W^2

Substitute

D^2= 36^2+ 15^2

D^2=  1296+225

D^2= 1521

D= √1521

D= 39  meters

Hence the distance while walking on the side is

=36+15

=51 meters

Hence the difference is

=51-39

=12meters
