The length of the diagonal of the canvas is approximately 27 degrees.
The height of the rectangular canvas must reach 18 inches. It must form a 48 degrees angle with the diagonal at the top of the canvas.
<h3>Length of the diagonal Canvas</h3>
Therefore, the length of the diagonal can be found as follows:
Using trigonometric ratio,
- cos ∅ = adjacent / hypotenuse
where
∅ = 48°
adjacent side = Height of the rectangle = 18 inches
hypotenuse = Length of the diagonal
Therefore,
cos 48° = 18 / h
cross multiply
h = 18 / cos 48°
h = 18 / 0.66913060635
h = 26.9005778976
length of the diagonal ≈ 27 inches
