The dimensions of a box that is a rectangular prism are 3 inches, 4 inches, and 6 inches. What is the length of the diagonal from the point R to point S, to the nearest tenth of an inch?

7.8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- The dimension of rectangular prism:

                                   (3 x 4 x 6) inches

Find:-

What is the length of the diagonal from the point R to point S, to the nearest tenth of an inch?

Solution:-

- We will set up an origin with coordinates ( 0 , 0 , 0 ) at point R. Then the coordinates of point S would be ( 3 , 4 , 6 ).

- Then we will use the distance between two points formula in cartesian coordinate system:

                    Distance =

Where the coordinates of two points ( x1 , y1 , z1 ) & ( x2 , y2 , z2 ).

- Using R( 0 , 0 , 0 ) & S( 3 , 4 , 6 ), the distance |RS| would be:

- The distance |RS| to nearest 10th of an inch is = 7.8 in
