A rectangular frame is being built for an artist's canvas. The finished canvas should have a length of 5 inches and a width of 12 inches. If the angles in the corners of the canvas are true right angles, what should the length of the diagonal measure?

what is the question here

step-by-step explanation:

i believe the answer is letter c) 8

step-by-step explanation:

15.36 per mile

but forgot to round

i am pretty sure

isocolese triangle

we know that the line connect a and b is the hyptonuse

so first find the hypotonuse length using the distance formula, call the length c

since it is an isocolese triangle, the lengths of the legs are the same

using pythagorean theorem,

in this case, a=b since isocolese triangle so we get

or

we can find c so we can find the distances

we know that if we draw 2 circles, each has center at a and b, and find where they intersect, we can the 2 possible locations for c

if a has center at (xa,ya) and b has center at (xb,yb), then we can solve where

and

intersect to find where they intersect

i'm not going to put an example because i have to go to class. i hope this explanation is enough
