Question

Which size would you see on the box for a new television whose screen measures 32 inches wide by 18 inches high?

Answer 1

37

Explanation:

The calculation of size for a new television is shown below:-

With the help of Pythagoras theorem

`h^2 = b^2 + p^2`

where

h indicates hypotenuse which is the diagonal length

b indicates the base which is the length of the horizontal side

p indicates perpendicular which is the TV length of the vertical side.

`h^2 = √(b^2 + p^2)`

now, we will put the values into the above formula

`= √(32^2 + 18^2) \\\\ = √(1024 + 324) \\\\ = √(1348)`

Which gives result

= 36.7

or

= 37
