Length of one of the diagonals of a rectangle whose sides are 10 cm and 24 cm is
(a) 25 cm
(b) 20 cm
(c) 26 cm
(d) 3.5 cm

Solution:

Given, the dimensions of a rectangle are 10 cm and 24 cm

We have to find the length of one of the diagonals of a rectangle.

Given, length of rectangle = 24 cm

Breadth of rectangle = 10 cm

We know, diagonal = √length²+breadth²

= √(24)² + (10)²

= √576 + 100

= √676

= 26 cm

Therefore, the required length of diagonal is 26 cm.
