Answer:

Option 3: about 14 inches

Explanation:

The notebook paper is in the form of a rectangle of length


l = 11 inches and width
w = 8.5 inches

The diagonal of such a rectangle is given by the Pythagorean formula

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

Substituting the values of
l and
w:


d = \sqrt{11^(2) + 8.5^(2)}\\\\d = √(121 + 72.25)\\\\d = √(193.25)\\\\d= 13.9014\;inches

This corresponds to Option 3: about 14 inches
