Arectangle is placed inside a circle whose diameter is 13 with all of its corners on the circle. the area of the rectangle is 60. what are the dimensions of the rectangle? hint: draw a picture and use the pythagorean theorem.

Given

A rectangle is placed inside a circle whose diameter is 13unit all corners of it on the circle.

area of the rectangle = 60 square unit

Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

To proof

As given in the question

rectangle is placed inside a circle whose diameter is 13unit .

now by using the diagram given below

the diagonal of the rectangle is equal to the diameter of the circle.

Thus DB = 13 unit

FORMULA

Area of the rectangle = Length × Breadth

area of the rectangle =  60 square unit

let the value of the length be ( Say AB ) = x

put the value in the above equation

we get

60 = x  × Breadth

now in ABD

Using the pythagorus theorem

we get

BD²= AB² + AD²

solving the above equation

we get

(x² - 25) (x² -144) =0

The roots are

x = -12 ,-5, 5, 12

-12 and -5 are neglected  because of negative terms .

( Length and breadth of recangle cannot be negative )

thus x = 12 and 5

Two case arise

First case

when

Length of rectangle= 12unit

Breadth of rectangle = 5 unit

Second case

Length of rectangle= 5unit

Breadth of rectangle = 12 unit

Hence proved

i believe the answer is 68cm

step-by-step explanation:

i just took 34 x 2 because the space between v and y is the same as y to k.
