Jill’s front door is 42” wide and 84” tall. She purchased a circular table that is 96 inches in
diameter. Will the table fit through the front door? Explain
+23254 The largest a circular table can be to fit through a door is one that is no larger than the distance from one corner of the door to its opposite corner (the thickness of the table does affect the maximum size).
This can be found by finding the hypotenuse, using the width and the height as the sides.
Hypotenuse: h2 = 422 + 842 ---> h2 = 8820 ---> h = 93.9".
NO, the table won't fit.
