Answer:
5√13 m
Explanation:
The length of the space diagonal is the "Pythagorean sum" of the lengths of the edges of the cuboid.
AC = √(8² +6² +15²) = √325 = √(13·25)
AC = 5√13 . . . meters
__
AB is the hypotenuse of the right triangle with legs 6 and 8, so is 10 units. AC is the hypotenuse of right triangle ABC, so is ...
AC = √(AB² +BC²) = √(10² +15²)
