Answer:

The length of Fence will be 20 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given question we have provided that :

  • Length of rectangle = 16 m
  • Width of rectangle = 12 m
  • Diaognal of rectangle = Fence

Here's the required formula to find Fence (Diaognal) of rectangle :


\longrightarrow{\pmb{\rm{d = \sqrt{ {(l)}^(2) + {(w)}^(2)}}}}

  • d = diagonal
  • l = length
  • w = width

Substituting all the given values in the formula to find the length of Fence :


\longrightarrow{\sf{Fence = \sqrt{ {(l)}^(2) + {(w)}^(2)}}}


\longrightarrow{\sf{Fence = \sqrt{ {(16)}^(2) + {(12)}^(2)}}}


{\longrightarrow{\sf{Fence = \sqrt{ {(16 * 16)}+ {(12 * 12)}}}}}


{\longrightarrow{\sf{Fence = \sqrt{ {(256)}+ {(144)}}}}}


{\longrightarrow{\sf{Fence = √(256+ 144)}}}


{\longrightarrow{\sf{Fence = √(400)}}}


{\longrightarrow{\sf{\underline{\underline{\red{Fence = 20 \: m}}}}}}

Hence, the length of Fence will be 20 m.


\rule{300}{2.5}

Answer:

fence length is 20 cm

Explanation:

let fence be c

use Pythagoras theorem,

a² + b² = c²

here a is 12 cm and b is 16 cm

12² + 16² = c²

c = √12² + 16²

c = √400

c = 20
