Find the lengths of the diagonals of rectangle WXYZ.
WY= 6x - 7
XZ = 3x + 2


Sagot :

Answer:

√(45x²-72x+53)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you insert diagonals, two right-angle triangles are formed.

To find the length of the diagonals, we put the rectangles into pythagorean theorem:

a²=b²+c²

a²=(6x-7)²+(3x+2)²

a²=36x²-84x+49 + 9x²+12x+4

a²=45x²-72x+53

a=√(45x²-72x+53)

Lengths of diagonals of the rectangle are [tex]\boldsymbol{11}[/tex] units, [tex]\boldsymbol{11}[/tex] units respectively.

To understand the calculations, check below.

Define rectangle.

A rectangle is a parallelogram in which each angle is a right angle.

Diagonals of a rectangle are equal.

   [tex]WY=XZ[/tex]

[tex]6x-7=3x+2[/tex]

     [tex]3x=9[/tex]

      [tex]x=3[/tex]

So,

[tex]WY=6x-7\\WY=18-7\\WY=11\\XZ=3x+2\\XZ=9+2\\XZ=11[/tex]

So, lengths of diagonals are [tex]\boldsymbol{11}[/tex] units, [tex]\boldsymbol{11}[/tex] units respectively.
