Problema Solution

Adams front door is 38 feet wide and 68 feet tall she purchased a circular mirror that is 75 feet tall. Will the table fit through the front door

Answer provided by our tutors

The height, width and diagonal of the door form a right triangle.

The length of the diagonal, in inches, according to Pythagoras theorem, is:

d^2 = 38^2 + 68^2

d = 77.90 ft approximately

Since 75 < 77.90 follows the circular mirror will fit trough the door.
