The longer side of a rectangle is three times the length of the shorter side. If the length of the diagonal is x, find the width and length of the rectangle.
An interesting problem providing the sqrt(10) factor.
Do you know that "rectangle" is a Matlab function???????????????????????????????????
The function name 'rectangle' is duplicated with the built-in function. Cannot execute the test trial.
There was no correct solution since October, 12th, due to a defect in the test.
Thank you for renaming the function.
The test trials now can be executed correctly.
great problem
Awful wording: longer and shorter side, then width and length.
% x^2 = W^2 + L^2
% L =3*W
Could we solve these equations in matlab?
The problem statement should specify which (the width or the height) is the longer side of the rectangle.
By convention, length is taken as greater than (or equal) to width if no other information is available. Not sure if the problem statement was rewritten, but currently there's no mention of "height".
