Answer to first problem \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Consider the top of the box which is rectangle with width 5 feet and length 4 feet. \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "we need to find the diagnol of this rectangle \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if we draw a diagnol of this rectangle then we have two right angled triangles \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "for which we need to fing the hypotynuse\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so the diagnol will be Sqrt(5^2 + 4^2) \n" ); document.write( " = Sqrt(25 + 16) \n" ); document.write( " = Sqrt(41) = 6.4 Feet\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solution to the Second Problem \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now imagine to cut the box into two halves along the calculated diagnol in the above problem\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We will see a rectangle with width of 6.4 Feet and length of 8 Feet(height of the box) we need to find the diagnol again of this rectangle as we did in the above problem \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so the diagnol will be sqrt(8^2 + (6.4)^2) \n" ); document.write( " = Sqrt(64 + 41) \n" ); document.write( " = Sqrt(101)= 10.04 Feet\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "kapilsinghi123@gmail.com \n" ); document.write( " |
