Answer:

It states that assuming the trunk is 96" long.  So with that information assuming the trunk is at least 96 inches deep and the tv is 96” long and the length of the trunk diagonal is 56.36” which is greater than the TV length 56”, so the TV will fit diagonally in the trunk.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the diagonal of the trunk is 56.356011 inches.

What is Pythagoras Theorem?

A theorem stating that the square of the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other sides.

Given:

height of the trunk= 26 inches

length of the trunk= 50 inches

using Pythagorean theorem,

diagonal length of the trunk=√(height² +length²)

=√(26²+50²)

=√3176

=56.356011 inches

Hence, the length of the diagonal of the trunk is 56.356011 inches.
