Answer:
- 1 : 2√2
Explanation:
Let's say that,
Smaller and longer side of the rectangle are x and y
According to the question,
→ Diagonal = 3 times x
Or,
∴ Hypo. = 3x
Using Pythagoras theorem :
→ (3x)² = x² + y²
→ 9x² = x² + y²
→ 9x² - x² = y²
→ 8x² = y²
→ √8x² = y
→ 2√2x = y
Now,
Forning in ratio,
→ x : y
→ x : 2√2x
→ 1 : 2√2
∴ Required answer:- 1 : 2√2
