Answer:
The length of the diagonal of the frame equal 17 inches
Explanation:
The diagonal dividing the rectangle as made the rectangle 2 triangles
So according to Pythagoras Theorem,
Hypothenus² = opposite² + adjacent²
The diagonal lent is the Hypothenus.
so the two other sides are taking as opposite and adjacent respectively
so taking h as hypothenus,
h² = 15² + 8²
h² = 225 + 64
h² = 289
h = √289
h = 17
