Question

6. Meena takes a walk along the boundary of a rectangular park. If she walks
diagonally across the park, she covers 5 km. What are the possible dimensions
of the park?​

Answer 1

Answer:

length = 4km , breadth = 3km

Step-by-step explanation:

because , the diagonal of the rectangle divides it into two equal right angle triangles , so, we have to use Pythagoras theorem [a^2+b^2=c^2].

the diagonal is the hypotenuse of the triangles , so , 5^2 =25 . so , the possible diamensions are 3 and 4 , because 3^2 = 9+ 4^2 = 16 = 25
