Answer 2

Answer: 69.7 inch

Explanation:

Given

A television is advertised as 83 inch TV(diagonal length)

The height of the TV is 45 inches

Suppose, width is x

Using Pythagoras theorem, we can write

`\Rightarrow 83^2=45^2+x^2\\\Rightarrow x^2=83^2-45^2\\\Rightarrow x^2=6889-2025\\\Rightarrow x=69.7\ \text{inch}`
