Question

Question 1 (1 point) y An x = 7'-4" by y = 11' rectangular concrete pad is to be formed. Calculate the length of diagonal d so that the pad will be a rectangle, rather than any other parallelogram. Round your answer to the nearest 16th of an inch (simplify if possible; do NOT separate in feet and inches).

Step 1

- For the width \( x = 7'4" \): \[ 7 \text{ feet} = 7 \times 12 = 84 \text{ inches} \] \[ 4 \text{ inches} = 4 \text{ inches} \] \[ x = 84 + 4 = 88 \text{ inches} \] - For the length \( y = 11' \): \[ 11 \text{ feet} = 11 \times Show more…
