Answer:
The longest segment is approximately 19.13cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]l = 14cm[/tex]
[tex]w = 11cm[/tex]
[tex]h = 7cm[/tex]
Required
The length of the longest segment (d)
This is calculated using:
[tex]d = \sqrt{l^2 +w^2 + h^2[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]d = \sqrt{14^2 +11^2 +7^2[/tex]
Using a calculator, the equation becomes
[tex]d = \sqrt{366[/tex]
Take square roots
[tex]d = 19.13cm[/tex]
