1. Problem Description

The problem states that a kite has a center diagonal of 33 inches and an area of 95 square inches. We need to find the length of the other diagonal and round the answer to the nearest tenth.

2. Solution Steps

The area of a kite is given by the formula:
Area=12d1d2Area = \frac{1}{2} * d_1 * d_2
where d1d_1 and d2d_2 are the lengths of the two diagonals.
In this problem, we are given the area and one diagonal, and we need to find the other diagonal. Let d1=33d_1 = 33 inches and Area=95Area = 95 square inches. We need to find d2d_2.
Plugging in the given values into the formula:
95=1233d295 = \frac{1}{2} * 33 * d_2
Multiply both sides by 2:
190=33d2190 = 33 * d_2
Divide both sides by 33:
d2=19033d_2 = \frac{190}{33}
d25.757575...d_2 \approx 5.757575...
We need to round the answer to the nearest tenth. Since the hundredths digit is 5, we round up.
d25.8d_2 \approx 5.8 inches.

3. Final Answer

The length of the other diagonal is approximately 5.8 inches.
