Question

Look at the rectangle and the square:

A rectangle PQRS and square LMNO are drawn side by side. The length SR of the rectangle is labeled as 12 inches, and the width QR is labeled as 6 inches. The side LM of the square is labeled as 6 inches
Sam says that the length of diagonal SQ is two times the length of diagonal OM.

Is Sam correct? Justify your answer and show all your work. Your work should state the theorem you used to find the lengths of the diagonals. (10 points)

Answer 1

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle - c = √a²+b² = √6²+12² = 13.41641, or 13.42

Square - c = √a²+b² = √6²+6² = 8.48528, or 8.49

He is incorrect. 13.42 halved is 6.71, not 8.49.

-hope it helps

Answer 2

Answer:

HELL nah

Step-by-step explanation:

square = all sides are same

6^2 + 6^2 = 72 square root

so 72 square root = 8.4...

__________________________

6^2 + 12^2 =  180

180 = 13.4

So is 8.4 * 8.4 = to 13? Nope.
