The length of a rectangular screen is 6 feet, and the width of the screen is 8 feet. What is the length of a diagonal of this sc
1 answer:
Answer:
Length of diagonal = 10 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of a rectangular screen = 6 feet
Width of the rectangular screen = 8 feet
Since, all interior angles of a rectangle are 90°,
Triangle formed with two adjacent sides and the diagonal will be a right triangle.
By applying Pythagoras theorem,
Hypotenuse² = (leg 1)² + (leg 2)²
(Diagonal)² = (leg 1)² + (leg 2)²
Diagonal =
=
= 10 feet

Hi there!
v = ±
- - - - - - - - -
K = 1/2mv²
Isolate for the variable "v". We can begin by dividing both sides by 1/2. (Multiply by the reciprocal, or 2):
2 · K = 2 · (1/2mv²)
2K = mv²
Continue isolating by dividing both sides by "m":
2K / m = v²
Take the square root of both sides. Remember that the solution can either be positive or negative since there are positive and negative roots.
v = ±
