Could the baton fit along the interior diagonal of the box?

Length of vertical diagonal length is 39.5 inches which is greater then baton length of 38 inches which means baton do fit along the interior diagonal of the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Kyile needs to pack her baton for a color - guard competition . The baton is 38 inches long  . She has a rectangular box with a base of 13 inches by 35 inches and a height of 13 inches. In order to fit baton in the interior diagonal of the box we need to find length of vertical diagonal of box and if it's length is greater than or equal to baton we can say that it fits else not . Let's find length of diagonal :

By Pythagoras Theorem :

⇒

⇒

⇒

⇒

This is base diagonal length , Now baton diagonal length:

⇒

⇒

⇒

Since , length of vertical diagonal length is 39.5 inches which is greater then baton length of 38 inches which means baton do fit along the interior diagonal of the box.
