Respuesta :

cos 32  = 10 / AC 
AC = 10 / cos 32

   =  11.79  m  ( to nearest hundredth)

Answer:

The length of the diagonal of the given Rectangle is, 11.80 m (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

In Rectangle:

* It is a four sided shape where every angle is a right angle.

* The alternative sides are equal.

*Two axes of symmetry bisect each other.

* Diagonals are equal in length.

The figure of rectangle has given the length [tex]l[/tex] = 10m

In right angle triangle ADC.  

DC = 10 m ( as alternative sides are equal )

Note that we are given here the adjacent and we have to find the  length of hypotenuse, then we use trigonometric ratio that contains both sides adjacent and hypotenuse.

Use:  [tex]Cosine = \frac{Adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

then,

[tex]\cos 32^{\circ} = \frac{10}{AC}[/tex]  or

[tex]Ac = \frac{10}{\cos 32^{\circ}} =\frac{10}{0.8480481}[/tex]

On simplify we get;

AC = 11.791784 m

therefore, the length of the diagonal of this rectangle (AC) is, 11.80 m (Approx)
