Q:

Look at the rectangle and the square:Anna says that the length of diagonal SQ is two times the length of diagonal OM.Is Anna correct? Justify your answer and show all your work. Your work should state the theorem you used to find the lengths of the diagonals.

Accepted Solution

A:
diagonal for rectangle= sqrt( A^2 +b^2)diagonal for square = sqrt(2) * Siderectangle diagonal = sqrt (14^2+7^2) = 15.65 inches square diagonal = sqrt(2) * 7 = 9.90 inches9.9 *2 = 19.8 the diagonal of the rectangle is not two times the length of the square
