now given that AB= a
or √{(a/2)2 + (b/2)2} =a (supposing a>b)
or a=√3 *b
(this means b>a hence must be a mistake in the question)
A rectangular sheet of paper is folded so that two diagonally opposite corners come together. If the crease formed is the same length as the longer side of the sheet, what is the ratio of the longer side of the sheet to the shorter side?
