Question

The length of a rectangle is 12 cm and each of its diagonal measures 15 cm. Find its breadth.

Answer 1

Answer:- 1.24 units

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagoras theorem:-

(hypotenuse)²= (base)² × (perpendicular)²

i.e., (15)²= (base)²× (12)²

225 = (base)² × 144

√225/144= base = breadth

i.e., base= 1.24 units
