Question

5. The length of a rectangular swimming pool is 50 yards, and the width of the pool is 16

yards. What is the approximate length of the diagonal of this pool?
A. 66 yards
B. 2756 yards
C. 52.50 yards
D. 47.37 yards

Answer 1

The answer is C. I got this by doing a^2 + b^2= c^2. 50^2 + 16^2=c^2, 2500 + 256 = c^2, 2756 = c^2, then you take the square root of 2756 and that gives you your answer 52.50 yards. Hope this helps :D
