4. The three different face diagonals of a cuboid ( rectangular parallclopiped ) have lengths 39, 40, 41. The length of the main diagonal of the cuboid which joins a pair of opposite corners is 
A. 49
B. 49 2
C. 60 
D. 60 2

Dear student,

Let l, b and h be the length, breadth and height of the cuboid.

Given that the three face diagonals are 39, 40, 41.

l2+b2=392    .....1b2+h2=402   .....2l2+h2=412   .......3Adding 1, 2 and 3, we get2l2 + b2 + h2 = 392 + 402 + 412 = 1521+1600+1681 = 4802l2 + b2 + h2 = 2401l2 + b2 + h2 = 49So, length of main diagonal of cuboid = 49 m
