A picture frame is 15 inches long and 8 inches wide in inches what is the diagonal length of the picture frame
A) 8 inches
B) 15 inches
C) 12 inches
D) 17
To find the diagonal length of the picture frame, we can use the Pythagorean theorem:
Diagonal length = √(length^2 + width^2)
Diagonal length = √(15^2 + 8^2)
Diagonal length = √(225 + 64)
Diagonal length = √289
Diagonal length = 17
Therefore, the diagonal length of the picture frame is 17 inches.
The correct answer is D) 17 inches.
