Solve the Babylonian problem: Let the width of a rectangle measure a quarter less than the length. Let 1,15 be the length of the diagonal. What are the length and width? Use the false position method. A. Length = 2,0, width = 1,30 B. Length = 1,40, width = 1,15 C. Length = 1,0, width = 45 D. Length = 1,40, width = 1,10
