Square

Rectangular square has side lengths 183 and 244 meters. How many meters will measure the path that leads straight diagonally from one corner to the other?

Result

x =  305 m

Solution:

a=183 m b=244 m x=a2+b2=1832+2442=305 ma=183 \ \text{m} \ \\ b=244 \ \text{m} \ \\ x=\sqrt{ a^{ 2 }+b^{ 2 } }=\sqrt{ 183^{ 2 }+244^{ 2 } }=305 \ \text{m}
