Cast to 6 points if a TV has the following dimensions 48 in wide 27 inches high and 5 5 in diagonal respond to the following question if the TV is 5 in wider and 3 inches higher what is the new diagonal measurement add 5 to 48 for width and add 3 to 27 per height and put them in a and b and c
Based on the given information, the current dimensions of the TV are as follows:
Width: 48 inches
Height: 27 inches
Diagonal: 55 inches
To calculate the new dimensions, we will add 5 inches to the width and 3 inches to the height:
New width (a): 48 + 5 = 53 inches
New height (b): 27 + 3 = 30 inches
Now, to calculate the new diagonal measurement (c), we can use the Pythagorean theorem, as diagonal, height, and width form a right triangle:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
c^2 = 53^2 + 30^2
c^2 = 2809 + 900
c^2 = 3709
c ≈ √3709
c ≈ 60.94 inches (rounded to two decimal places)
Therefore, the new diagonal measurement of the TV would be approximately 60.94 inches.
