Answer:
40.20cm approx
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one
given data
We are told that the dimension of a computer screen
diagonal= 52 cm
height= 33cm
Length = ?
Required
The length of the base of the screen
Step two
Let us use Pythagoras theorem to find the length of the base
Hyp^2= Opp^2+ Adj^2
52^2= 33^2+ L^2
2704= 1089+L^2
L^2= 2704-1089
L^2= 1615
L=√1615
L= 40.20cm approx
The length is 40.20cm approx.
