Question

If one measurement of a golden rectangle is 8.2 inches, what is the other measurement? a. 13.268 b. 9.818 c. 6.582 d. 1.618

Answer 1

Option A. 13.268 inches

Explanation:

Golden rectangle is a rectangle in which sides are in the golden ratio that is nearly 1.618.

By this property,

Golden ratio =
`\frac{\text{Length of one side}}{\text{Length of other side}}`

1.618 =
`\frac{\text{Length of one side}}{8.2}`

Other side = 1.618×8.20 = 13.268 inches

Option A. 13.268 is the answer.
