Answer: Diagonal of rectangular frame = 13 inches
Explanation :
We are given that
Length of rectangular frame=12 inches
Breadth of rectangular frame=5 inches
Diagonals of rectangular frame = ?
By using pythagoras theorem, we can find
[tex]H^2= B^2+P^2[/tex] , where H denotes hypotenuse , B denotes base and P denotes perpendicular,
[tex]H^2=12^2+5^2\\H^2=144+25\\H^2=169\\H=\sqrt{169}\\H=13\text{ inches}[/tex]
∴ Diagonal = 13 inches
