GIVEN :-
- length of rectangle = 24 m
- breath of rectangle = 7 m
TO FIND :-
- diognal of rectangle
SOLUTION :-
in rectangle PQRS
length = PQ = RS = 24 m
breath = QR = PS = 7 m
diognal = QS = PR = ?
now we have to finds QS
if we see , then QSR is a right angled triangle
( as angle QSR is 90° due to rectangle )
so in ∆ QSR
QR = 7 m
RS = 24 m
now we know according to pythogoras theorem
where
h = hypotenuse
p = perpendicular
b = base
similarly ,
HENCE ,
[ note : we can even solve this question by using direct formula d = √( l² + b² ) where d = diognal , l = length and b = breath ]
