1.The diagonal of a rectangle is 25 feet. If the length of the rectangle is 15 feet, find the area in square meters and the perimeter in the meters.

the other legth = sqrt(252-152) = 20

area = length *width = 20*15 = 300 sq ft = 300*(0.3048)^2  sq m = 27.88 sq m

perimeter = 2(length + width) = 2(25+15) = 80 ft = 80*0.3048 m = 24.38 m
