The diagonal of the tv screen is given by:
d = root ((w) ^ 2 + (h) ^ 2)
Where,
w: width
h: height
In addition we have the following relationship:
h / w = 8/15
Thus,
For the width:
d = root ((w) ^ 2 + ((8/15) w) ^ 2)
For the high:
d = root (((15/8) h) ^ 2 + (h) ^ 2)
Answer:
The expressions for the width and height of a wide-screen tv in terms of the length of its diagonal are:
d = root ((w) ^ 2 + ((8/15) w) ^ 2)
d = root (((15/8) h) ^ 2 + (h) ^ 2)
