Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangular garden that measures 6 feet by 8 feet. Garden is to be roped off to form a right angled triangle.
To make a right triangle rope should be tied diagonally.
Therefore, length of the rope = [tex]\sqrt{Length^{2}+width^{2}}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{6^{2}+8^{2}}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{36+64}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex]
= 10 feet.
Option D 10 feet. is the answer.
