One side of a rectangular field is 15 m and one of its diagonals is 17 m. Find the area of the field.
Answer/Solution
120 m^2
Steps/Work
Other side = ((17) 2- (15)2)(1/2)
= (289- 225)(1/2)
= (64)(1/2)
= 8 m.
Area = (15 x 8) m2 = 120 m2.
Option C
= (289- 225)(1/2)
= (64)(1/2)
= 8 m.
Area = (15 x 8) m2 = 120 m2.
Option C
