Answer:
Length of diagonal = 10 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of a rectangular screen = 6 feet
Width of the rectangular screen = 8 feet
Since, all interior angles of a rectangle are 90°,
Triangle formed with two adjacent sides and the diagonal will be a right triangle.
By applying Pythagoras theorem,
Hypotenuse² = (leg 1)² + (leg 2)²
(Diagonal)² = (leg 1)² + (leg 2)²
Diagonal = [tex]\sqrt{6^2+8^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex]
= 10 feet
