Find the perimeter of the rectangle whose length is 15cm and diagonal is 17cm. About the author Audrey
We know that 17cm is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with one side being 15cm. So from the Pythagorean theorem we know that 17^2 – 15^2 will equal the square of the other side. 289 – 225 = 64 which is 8^2. Therefore the rectangle has sides of 8 and 15 perimeter is 46 cm Reply

We know that 17cm is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with one side being 15cm.
So from the Pythagorean theorem we know that 17^2 – 15^2 will equal the square of the other side. 289 – 225 = 64 which is 8^2.
Therefore the rectangle has sides of 8 and 15 perimeter is 46 cm
