Question

A rectangular lawn has a diagonal path running across it. The lawn is 10m wide and 15m long. Work out the length of the path

Answer 1

Answer:

d = 18.02 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A rectangular lawn has a diagonal path running across it. The lawn is 10m wide and 15m long.

We need to find the length of the path.

The diagonal of a rectangle can be calculated as follows :

$d=\sqrt{10^2+15^2} \\\\d=18.02\ m$

So, the length of the path is 18.02 m.
