Question

the diagonal of a rectangle is thrice it's smaller side. Find the ratio of its sides..
( hint : use Pythagoras theorem)

Answer 1

We have a right angle triangle with hypotenues as diagonal.
Let the smaller side be x.and larger side be y.
So acc to pgt
X^2+y^2=(3x)^2
Y^2=9x^2-x^2
Y^2=8x^2
Taking square root both sides
Y=2root2x
Ratio of sides is 2root2:1
