Question

5. The area of rectangular piece of land is 108m2 what is the length of the diagonal in meters if one side of the land is 12m

Answer 1

Answer:

15m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 108m² (l×b)

One Side = 12m

If Other Side is x,

108 = 12x

Therefore, x = 9m

Now, by Pythagoras Theorem,

12² + 9² = (Diagonal)²

144 + 81 = D²

Therefore D = √225m

= 15m
