Answer:

The answer is 8.3

Step-by-step explanation:

(I'm not that good at explaining things so bear with me please. I checked on Khan Academy so it's right)

I split the box on the right diagonally and got the equation

[tex]4^{2}[/tex] + [tex]2^{2}[/tex] = [tex]x^{2}[/tex]

=16 + 4 =[tex]\sqrt{20}[/tex]

≈4.5

The new triangle will help solve what d is

[tex]4.5^{2}[/tex] + [tex]7^{2}[/tex] = [tex]d^{2}[/tex]

=20.25 +49 = [tex]\sqrt{69.25}[/tex]

≈8.3

The diagonal of the rectangular prism shown is 8.3.

What is diagonal?

A polygonal is a closed, two-dimensional structure that is flat or plane and seems to have excellent dimensional.

A diagonal is a line segment that joins 2 opposing polygonal vertices.

In another word, a diagonal is an inclined line that connects two orthogonal lines to become a complete triangle.

Diagonal is the use for the idea of the length of sides, for example, if you want to measure the height of a tower knowing diagonal will surely help to do this.

Given a rectangular prism

Let x is the diagonal of the sides 7 and 4 then

By Pythagoras theorem

4² + 7² = x²

x² = 65

x=8.06

Now in the right-angle triangle of sides d,x and 2

d² = 65 + 4

D = √(69)

d  = 8.30 hence, the correct answer is 8.30.
