The diagonal of the floor of a rectangular closet is 712 feet. The shorter side of the closet is 412 feet. What is the area of the closet in square feet?

5 .5
13.5
27
37

Correct Answer: 27

Explanation:

Other side= $\frac{15}{2} 2 - \frac{9}{2} f t$ = $\frac{225}{4} - \frac{81}{4} f t$ = $\frac{144}{4}$ = 6ft

Area of closet =(6 x 4.5)sq.ft = 27 sq.ft
