the size of a computer screen is measured along the diagonal. what is the approximate size measured to the nearest inch, of a 12 inch by 10.5 in computer screen

Respuesta :

This uses pythagoras which is a^2=b^2+c^2. You need to find the diagonal which is "a". Therefore a^2=144+110.25 which equals 254.25 then square root it and you get 15.945

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of pythagoras and triangles to calculate the size of a canvas, in this way we find that;

[tex]15.945 inch[/tex]

So knowing that the Pythagorean formula is given by:

[tex]a^2=b^2+c^2[/tex]

Substituting b and c for the values ​​informed in the exercise we find that:

[tex] a^2=144+110.25 \\ a^2=254.25 \\ a=15.945 [/tex]
