The diagonal of a rectangle divides its angle by a ratio of 1: 2. Find the length of the diagonal of a rectangle if the length of its shorter side is 16 mm.

1. Let’s define the number of degrees, which is one part of the ratio.

90 / (1 + 2) = 30 °.

2. The smaller side of the rectangle is 1/2 of the diagonal, since it lies opposite a 30 ° angle. Let’s answer the question of the problem.

16 * 2 = 32 millimeters.

Answer: 32 millimeters.
