To solve this word problem, we will use the Pythagorean Theorem.
Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Our side lengths are 10 and 24ft.
So, we can plug them in for a and b.
10^2 + 24^2 = c^2
100 + 576 = 676
Then, we need to find the square root of 676.
sqrt676) = 26
So, the missing length or the hypotenuse is 26 feet.
Therefore, we require 26 feet of string to measure the length of the hypotenuse in which the room is split in half.
23=4w-13
First add 13 to both sides.
36=4w
w=9
Hope this helps!
Hey, to find the area of the rhombus all you have to do is multiple the horizontal part in the inside to the vertical part (also inside the rhombus). After that divide by two and you have your answer.
