Hitunglah panjang diagonal dari gambar berikut:

Solution

The question is asking to calculate the length of the diagonal xx of a rectangle, where the sides are given as 5 and 525\sqrt{2}.

To find the length of the diagonal in a rectangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem:

x=(5)2+(52)2x = \sqrt{(5)^2 + (5\sqrt{2})^2}

Let's compute it step by step:

  1. Square both sides: 52=25and(52)2=52×(2)2=25×2=505^2 = 25 \quad \text{and} \quad (5\sqrt{2})^2 = 5^2 \times (\sqrt{2})^2 = 25 \times 2 = 50

  2. Add the squares: 25+50=7525 + 50 = 75

  3. Take the square root of the sum: x=75=25×3=53x = \sqrt{75} = \sqrt{25 \times 3} = 5\sqrt{3}

Therefore, the length of the diagonal xx is 535\sqrt{3}.

Here are some related questions for practice:

  1. What is the area of this rectangle?
  2. If the diagonal was 10210\sqrt{2}, what would the side lengths be?
  3. How do you use the Pythagorean theorem to find the sides of a right triangle?
  4. What is the perimeter of this rectangle?
  5. If you increase both sides of the rectangle by 2, what will the new diagonal length be?

Tip: The Pythagorean theorem is a useful tool for calculating distances in right-angled triangles, including diagonals in rectangles!
