Arectangular park is 24 miles long and 8 miles wide. how long is a pedestrian route that runs diagonally across how long is a pedestrian route that runs diagonally across the park?

solution given:

length [l]=24miles

breadth [b]=8miles

diagonal =?

we have

In right angled triangle BCD

perpendicular [p]=8miles

base[b]=8miles

hypotenuse[h]=?

by using Pythagoras law

h²=p²+b²

h²=24²+8²

h=√(640)=25.298

since hypotenuse=diagonal=25.3miles

25.3miles is a pedestrian route that runs diagonally across the park

3; 9 is 8 to -4
