How to find the breadth of a rectangle when length and diagonal is given?
Given :
Length and diagonal of a rectangle.
To find :
Breadth of the rectangle.
Solution :
We need to find the breadth of the rectangle.
Already we have length and diagonal.
As in the figure,
We can see a triangle is formed , diagonal as the base.
By pythagoras theorem,
AB² + BC² = AC²
Here,
We can take Length = AB².
Diagonal = AC²
∴ Breadth = BC ²
BC² = AC² - AB².
BC = √(AC²-AB²)
ie,
Breadth² = ( Diagonal ² - Length²)
Breadth = √( Diagonal ² - Length²)
So the formula to calculate breadth when length and diagonal of a rectangle is given is,
Hope it helps u dear !! ♥
