The area of a rectangle is 100 square cm. If a square is built using a diagonal of this rectangle as one of its sides, the square has area 700 square cm. What is the perimeter of the rectangle?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "A side of the 2nd square is sqrt(700)
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let a side of the 1st square be \"x\"
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 + x^2 = (sqrt(700))^2
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "2x^2 = 700
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 = 350
\n" ); document.write( "x = sqrt(350)
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter of the 1st square = 4*sqrt(350)
\n" ); document.write( "==============================================
