Question

Pathrine got a rectangular cloth for she wants to make a personalized face mask. Its length is 6 inches and its width is 4 inches. She also wanted to make a diagonal embroidery at the middle. What is the length of the diagonal?

Answer 1

Given :

• The length of the Rectangular Cloth = 6 inches
• The breadth of the Rectangular Cloth = 4 inches

To find :

• length of the diagonal

Steps :

• To find the Diagonal, we have to use the "Pythagoras theorem".

Solution :

⇒ Let's find the Diagonal.

Here,

a = 6 inches

b = 4 inches

Pythagoras Theorem = √a² + b²

                                   = √6² + 4²

                                   = √36 + 16

                                   = √52

                                   = 7.21

Therefore, the length of the diagoanl is 7.21 inches.
