A65 inch wide screen television actually describes the length of the diagonal of a rectangular television with a length of 63 inches. what is the width of the television?

For this question we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem (a2+b2=c2) since the rectangle is being divided into two triangles.

we know the length of the triangle (63) and we know the hypotenuse (65) but not the width. To find the width, we can plug the values we know into our formula.

(63) squared + b squared = (65) squared

solve.

3969 + b squared = 4225

subtract 3969 from both sides.

b squared = 256

√b² = √256

b=16

its a straight line parallel to the time axis
