is there anyone to help me
OpenStudy (mathmate):
The diagonal cuts the rectangle into two right-triangles, with the hypotenuse = 61 and one of the (shorter) sides 11.
Use Pythagoras theorem for the length L, where
L^2+11^2=61^2
Solve for L.

Would c=10 be a hypotenuse?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok thank
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i need to know what would a be
OpenStudy (mathmate):
If c=10 is a hypotenuse, then a=8 (sqrt(10^2-6^2).
If it is not, then we need to find the hypotenuse by sqrt(6^2+10^2)=4sqrt(10)

i have 8 i was just making sure i was correct thank you
