A diagnol walk through a small rectangular garden 9 meters by 12 meters can be built at $10 per linear meter. How much will the walk cost? \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Draw a diagram of your problem. \n" ); document.write( "Once you do, you'll see that you need to find the length of the diagonal. \n" ); document.write( "To do this, you need to apply Pythagorean Theorem. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Length of diagonal: \n" ); document.write( "sqrt(9^2 + 12^2) \n" ); document.write( "= sqrt(81 + 144) \n" ); document.write( "= sqrt(225) \n" ); document.write( "= 15 feet \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Since the cost is $10 per linear feet: \n" ); document.write( "10*15 = $150 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
