Help Please!

A square painting has a diagonal of 44 in. Lorraine wants to frame the picture.
How many inches of frame will she need? Round to the nearest inch.

Answer 1

use the pythagoras theorem
since all the sides of a square are equal
x^2 + x^2 = 44^2
where x is the length of one side of the picture

Answer 2

umm...90

Answer 3

the total length of frame need will be 4 times x

Answer 4

Ok.

Answer 5

2 x^2 = 44^2
x^2 = 44^2/2 = 1936/2
so take square root of both sides to find the measure of x
