  1. A rectangular carpet has an area of 120 sq. m and a perimeter of 46 m . The length of its diagonal is ?
    1. 15 m
    2. 16 m
    3. 17 m
    4. 20 m
Correct Option: C

Let length = a metres and breadth = b metres
Then, 2(a+b)= 46
⇒ (a+b) =23 and ab =120
∴ Diagonal = √a2 + b2
(23)2-2 x 120
√289 = 17 m
