Question

A rectangular lawn has a diagonal path running across it. The lawn is 10m wide and 15m long. Work out the length of the path

Answer 1

d = 18.02 m

Explanation:

Given that,

A rectangular lawn has a diagonal path running across it. The lawn is 10m wide and 15m long.

We need to find the length of the path.

The diagonal of a rectangle can be calculated as follows :

`d=√(10^2+15^2) \\\\d=18.02\ m`

So, the length of the path is 18.02 m.
