Determine if a metal rod of 2.8m can fit into a rectangular crate with dimensions 0.8m, 1.2m and 2.3m

the answer is no and the length of the rod would be 2.71m long but how do you get

The metal rod cannot fit into the rectangular crate

The maximum length that can fit is 2.71 m

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the diagonal of the base of the rectangular crate

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

Let

d ----> the diagonal of the base

step 2

Find the diagonal of the crate

Let

D ----> the diagonal of the crate

where

d is the diagonal of the base

h is the height of the crate

we have

substitute the values

therefore

The metal rod cannot fit into the rectangular crate

The maximum length that can fit is 2.71 m

$15.40 per mile

step-by-step explanation:

you have to round up to 4 because 6 is over 5 so you have to round the 3 up to 4
