What is the length of the diagonal of the square shown below?
8
@hackYou thats not an answer...
That's the diagonal of the rectangle shown.
@hackYou my bad i put the wrong directions
@hackYou What is the length of side s of the square shown below?
To find the leg pf a 45-45-90 triangle, divide the hypotenuse by sqrt2
@Mertsj thanks mate!
@Mertsj I divided 8 by 2 and I got 4, but the correct answer is 4Root2. Isnt 8 the hyptoenuse?
Did you divide by 2 or sqrt2 as I said?
@Mertsj I divided 8 by 2 and clicked 4, and it was wrong -_-
Do you know that these two numbers are NOT the same? \[2, \sqrt{2}\]
It is a simple yes or no question.
@mertsj yes i know those 2 numbers are not the same...I know what i did wrong
@Mertsj so would this answer be 14√2?
\[\frac{8}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{8}{\sqrt{2}}\times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{8\sqrt{2}}{2}=4\sqrt{2}\]
@Mertsj ok so what formula did you use to find that?
Well not you have posted a completely different problem. If you divide the hypotenuse by sqrt2 to get the leg, what should you do to the leg to get the hypotenuse?
@Mertsj I dont know dude, honestly, I am so lost in class, but I assume you divide it by sqrert2
