a frame shop has been commissioned 5 black and white photos for an island resort. Each photo has a perimeter of 224in. and a diagonal of 80in. Find the dimensions of the photos
The perimeter of the photos is given by: P = 2w + 2l The diagonal of the photos is given by d = root ((w) ^ 2 + (l) ^ 2) Where, w: width of the photo l: length of the photo Substituting values we have: 224 = 2w + 2l 80 = root ((w) ^ 2 + (l) ^ 2) Solving the system of equations we have: l = 64 in w = 48 in Answer: the dimensions of the photos are: l = 64 in w = 48 in
