Respuesta :
Rounded to the nearest tenth of an inch the Witdth of the monitor is 14.8 inches while the Height of the monitor is 11.9 inches.
Explanation:
The aspect ratio is defined as:
"The proportional relationship between the width and height of an image"
It is usually expressed in a mathematical language as:
[tex]x:y \\ \\ x: \ Width \\ \\ y: \ Height[/tex]
So, it is true that:
[tex]x:y=5:4 \\ \\ or: \\ \\ \frac{x}{y}=\frac{5}{4} \\ \\ \therefore x=\frac{5y}{4}[/tex]
In this case, we know that the monitor has a diagonal length (D):
[tex]D=19in[/tex]
So, by Pythagorean theorem:
[tex]D^2=361 \\ \\ 361=x^2+y^2 \\ \\ Since \ x=\frac{5y}{4}[/tex]
[tex]D^2=361 \\ \\ 361=x^2+y^2 \\ \\ Since \ x=\frac{5y}{4} \\ \\ 361=\left(\frac{5y}{4}\right)^2+y^2 \\ \\ 361=\frac{25y^2}{16}+y^2 \\ \\ \frac{41}{16}y^2=361 \\ \\ y^2=\frac{261\times 16}{41} \\ \\ y=\sqrt{140.87} \\ \\ y=11.869in[/tex]
Finding x:
[tex]x=\frac{5(11.869)}{4} \\ \\ x=14.836in[/tex]
Finally, rounded to the nearest tenth of an inch the Witdth of the monitor is 14.8 inches while the Height of the monitor is 11.9 inches.
