laura is buying a television it has 34 inch screen if it has 16 inches tall how wide is the screen her television cabinet is 19 inches wide will the television fit ?

Respuesta :

The screen is 30 inches wide. The television would not fit on the television cabinet.

Please find attached an image of the television

The width of the television can be determined using Pythagoras theorem

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length = 16 inches  

b = width

c =  hypotenuse = 34 inches

16² + b² = 34²

b² = 34² - 16²

b² = 1156 - 256

b² = 900

find the square root of both sides of the above equation

b = 30 inches

The width of the television is greater than that of the cabinet. Thus, the television would not fit the cabinet
