Tom bought a new mirror for his house. One side of the mirror is 38 inches and the other side is 30 inches. What is the length of the diagonal of the mirror? a. 68 inches b. 23 inches c. 34 inches d. 48 inches

Respuesta :

Answer:

d. 48 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the mirror is a rectangle

We solve for the length of a diagonal using Pythagoras Theorem

a² + b² = c²

c = √a² + b²

Where c = diagonal

a = 30 inches

b = 38 inches

c = √30² + 38²

c = √2344

c = 48.414873748 inches

Approximately = 48 inches
