one side of a rectangular field is 15 m and one its, Area, General Mathematics

Question:One side  of a rectangular field is 15 m and one of its diagonals is 17 m. Find the area of the field.

Answer Other side` = sqrt((17))^2 - ((15))^2`

              `= sqrt(289 - 225)`

              `= sqrt(64) = 8 m.`

:. Area` = (15 xx 8) sq.m = 120 sq.m.`
