Q7 of 50 Page 1

ABCD is a rectangle whose three vertices are B (4, 0), C (4, 3) and D (0, 3). The length of one of its diagonals is

In rectangle ABCD, we know that AC and BD are its diagonals.


We can find the length of BD by distance formula.


We know that the distance between the points P (x1, y1) and Q (x2, y2) is




= √25


= 5 units


∴ The length of one of the diagonals of the given rectangle is 5 units.
