Help ASAP Plz !!!! A windowpane is 6 inches by 6 inches. What is the distance between opposite corners of the windowpane? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Question
Answer:
Answer: The distance between opposite corners of the windowpane is 8.5 inches (rounding to the nearest tenth).Step-by-step explanation:1. Let's use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between opposite corners of the windowpane:With the information given, we have a right triangle with the distance between opposite corners of the windowpane as the hypotenuse and its sides of 6 inches as the width and length of the windowpane and as sides of the right triangle.Distance between opposite corners of the windowpane ² = Width of the windowpane ² + Length of the windowpane ²Replacing with the real values:Distance between opposite corners of the windowpane ² = 6² + 6²Distance between opposite corners of the windowpane ² = 36 + 36Distance between opposite corners of the windowpane ² = 72√ Distance between opposite corners of the windowpane² = √72 Distance between opposite corners of the windowpane = 8.5 inches (rounding to the nearest tenth)
