Assuming that C is the hypotenuse...
The formula you want to use is:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
We start by squaring 10, which is 100. 5^2 is 25. Now that we have the values, we can do the equation.
100+25=c^2 100+25=
Now, square root
C= 11.180
Answer:
Option D
Step-by-step explanation:
From the picture attached,
In the parallelogram ABCD,
Length of diagonals AC and BD are equal.
By the property,
"If the lengths of the diagonals of a parallelogram are equal, parallelogram will be a rectangle".
Therefore ABCD is a rectangle.
That means all interior angles of the given rectangle will be 90°.
Now we apply Pythagoras theorem in right triangle ΔABC,
AC² = AB² + BC²
(22)² = (12)² + (BC)²
484 - 144 = (BC)²
BC = √340
BC = 18.44 inches
Dimensions of the given box are 12 inches by 18.44 inches.
Dimensions of the rectangular tray is 11.5 inches by 18 inches.
Since, dimensions of the box are larger than the dimensions of the tray, tray can be adjusted in the box.
Therefore, Option D will be the answer.
