19. The diagonal of a rectangle exceeds the length by 2 cm. If the width
of the rectangle is 10 cm, find the length.
20. A cone has base radius 5 cm and slant height 11 cm. Find its vertical height.
21. It is possible to find the sides of a right-angled triangle, with lengths which are
whole numbers, by substituting different values of x into the expressions:
a) 2x2 + 2x+1
b) 2x2 + 2x
c) 2x+ 1
((a) represents the hypotenuse, (b) and (c) the other two sides.)
i) Find the sides of the triangles when x = 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
ii) Confirm that (2x + 1)² + (2x² + 2x)² = (2x² + 2x+ 1)²
22. The diagram represents the starting position (AB) and the
• finishing position (CD) of a ladder as it slips. The ladder is
leaning against a vertical wall.
A
Given: AC=x, OC=4AC, BD=2AC and OB = 5 m.
Form an equation in x, find x and hence find the length of the
ladder.
