    A 10 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 12 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 13 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 11 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the length and breadth of the rectangular field be тАШpтАЩ metres and тАШqтАЩ metres respectively Then, according to the question, 2 ├Ч (p + q) = 34 Or, (p + q) = 34/2 = 17тАжтАж (1) Also p ├Ч q = 60 We know, (p + q)2 = p2 + q2 + 2pq Or, p2 + q2 = 172 тАУ 2 ├Ч 60 Or, p2 + q2 = 169 So, length of the diagonal of the rectangular field = тИЪ(length2 + breadth2) = тИЪ(p2 + q2) = тИЪ169 = 13 metres
