Question

A rectangular room is 14 feet by 20 feet. The ceiling is 8 feet high. How do you find the length and width of the smaller and larger wall?

Answer 1

You use Pythagorean Therom , a^2+b^2=c^2

Answer 2

We need to visualize the box by using a diagram attached with this problem.

`Length = 14 \; feet`

`Width = 20 \; feet`

`Height = 8 \; feet`

The blue is smaller rectangle and brown is the larger rectangle

Conclusion:

Length of smaller wall (in blue color) is 14 feet

Width of smaller wall (in blue color) is 8 feet

Length of Larger wall (in brown color) is 20 feet

Width of the Larger wall (in brown color) is 8 feet
