Connie makes handmade quilts for her grandchildren each quilt is 4ft by 6ft what is the approximate length of the diagonal of the quilt
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem
Let
x -----> the diagonal of the quilt
x^2=4^2+6^2
x^2=16+36
x^2=52
x=7.21 ft
therefore
the approximate length of the diagonal is 7 ft
