What you are looking for is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
If you have a 12 x 24 rectangle, these would be the sides of the triangle and we would use Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
12^2 + 24^2 = c^2
144 + 576 = c^2
720 = c^2
take the square root of both sides
c = sqrt(720)
c = 26.8 inches is the approximate answer.
I don't know what your choices are but one should be close to this answer.

iogann1982 [59]
So there are 8 pints in a us gallon, 2 drops of blue to make a pint of purple (2x8x50=800) and then 3 drops of red to make purple (3x8x50=1200) I think maybe I've missed a step but (800+1200=2000) so 2000 drops of red and blue combined to make 50 gallons of purple paint.
