Question

Television sizes are described by the length of their measure. What would be the list size of the tv shown (to the nearest whole inch)

Answer 1

Notice that the situation can be modeled using a right triangle:

Using the pythagorean theorem, we know that:

$h^2=28^2+15.7^2$

This way,

$\begin{gathered} h=\sqrt[]{28^2+15.7^2} \\ \\ \Rightarrow h=32 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the listed size of the TV would be 32 inches.

Answer: Option B
