16. garrett's dad is making him pour a concrete slab for a shed. the pad is a rectangle that has dimensions of 9 1/2 ft by 15 ft. he wants to measure diagonally to make sure the frame is a rectangle. what should the diagonal length of the frames be?

So pythagrorean theorem is the ideal way and easiest way to solve this

a^2+b^2=c^2

8.5^2+11^2=x^2
72.25+121=193.25
square root of 193.25=13.9014 or 13.9 in

9.5^2+15^2=x^2
90.25+225=315.25
square root of 315.25=17.7553 or 17.8 ft
