Question

37. The diagonal and one side of the rectangular field are 289 m and 161 m
respectively. Find the other side.
(a) 180 m (b) 220 m (c) 230 m (d) 240 m​

Answer 1

Answer:

(d) 240 m

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Pythagoras Theorem,

(Length)² + (Breadth)² = (Diagonal)²

=> (Length)² + (161)² = (289)²

=> (Length)² + 25921 = 83521

=> (Length)² = 83521 - 25921

=> (Length)² = 57600

=> Length = square root of 57600 = 240 m
