      The ratio of two unequal sides of a rectangle is 1 : 2. If its perimeter is 24, then the length of a diagonal is

    A)  \[2/\sqrt{5}\]    

    B)  \[4/\sqrt{5}\]

    C)  \[2\sqrt{5}\]     

    D)  \[4\sqrt{5}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let the sides of rectangle be x and 2x, respectively. \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\]          \[\,2(x+2x)=24\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[3x=12\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\,x=4\] Length of diagonal\[=\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}+{{(2x)}^{2}}}=\sqrt{5{{x}^{2}}}\]    \[=\sqrt{5\times 4}=2\sqrt{5}\]
