Bheja Fry question

 Question 

There is a room with dimensions 3 meter, 4 meter and 12 meter. What is the height of the longest pole that can be kept in the room  ??

Answer 

The longest pole that can fit in a rectangular room is that it stretches from one bottom corner to the opposite top corner.

This is known as space diagonal and it is a 2D version.

To solve the above problem, we must use 3D version of Pythagorean theorem.

The formula for space diagonal (d) of a box with length l, width w and height h  is  -----

              d  =  sqrt (   l^2  +  w^2    +  h^2  )

Where   l =  3m    w = 4m   h  =  12m

==>>   d  =  sqrt  (  3^2   +   4^2      +     12^2  )

==>>   d  =  sqrt  (   9  +  16   +   144   )

==>>   d =  sqrt  (  169  )

==>>  d =  13 m

The height of or length of longest pole that can be kept in the room is     13 m !!!
