The area of a square is 32 cm. find the length of the diagonal

Answer:

8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Squares have equal side lengths so if we call each side x, then x × x gives us the area (32 cm²). This means that x² = 32 and therefore, one side is √32 cm.

Next, to work out the diagonal we can use Pythagoras' theory, since we can form a right-angled triangle. a² + b² = c² (c is the diagonal or the hypotenuse)

(√32)² + (√32)² = c²

(note: the square and the square root cancel out)

32 + 32 = 64

c² = 64 ∴ c = √64 which is 8

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The length of the diagonal is 8 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The side length of the square is √32 cms.

The diagonal divide the square into 2 congruent right triangles.

We use Pythagoras Theorem here:

d^2 = (√32)^2 +  (√32)^2

d^2 = 32 + 32 = 64

d = √64 = 8.

What is the common difference of the arithmetic sequence 5, 8, 11, 14?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The common difference is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In an <u>Arithmetic Sequence</u> the difference between one term and the next is a constant called the common difference

we have

5,8,11,14

so

a1=5

a2=8

a3=11

a4=14

a2-a1=8-5=3

a3-a2=11-8=3

a4-a3=14-11=3

therefore

The common difference is 3

Eric spent $60 on 5 shirts that each cost the same price. two of the shirts were blue .how much did the blue shirts cost?​
DaniilM [7]

since they cost the same we can work out the price of one by dividing 60 by 5 which is 12

so if each one costs 12 and we need the price of 2 then we just do 12×2 which is 24

the answer is $24
