PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jake, Edmund, Kim, and Maria were in Washington, D.C., attending a rally. One of the rally events was a walking race that began at a point near the center of Lincoln Park. The red group was to walk west along E. Capitol St. NE for 420 m, then north on 8th St. SE for 200 m, then southeast on Massachusetts Ave. NE back to the starting point in Lincoln Park. The blue team was to walk east on E. Capitol St. NE for 420 m, north on 14th St. SE for 200 m, then southwest on North Carolina Ave. NE back to the starting point.

Street map

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the distance from the corner of 8th St. SE and Massachusetts Ave. NE to the starting point in Lincoln Park. (Round to one decimal place.)

Answer:

465.2 m

Explanation:

To calculate the distance from the corner of 8th St. SE and Massachusetts Ave. NE to the starting point in Lincoln Park using the Pythagorean Theorem, you can use the formula:Distance=(side1)2+(side2)2Distance=(side1)2+(side2)2​In this case, the sides are the distances walked along E. Capitol St. NE and 8th St. SE. So:Distance=(420 m)2+(200 m)2Distance=(420m)2+(200m)2​Distance=176400 m2+40000 m2Distance=176400m2+40000m2​Distance=216400 m2Distance=216400m2​Distance≈465.2 mDistance≈465.2mTherefore, the correct answer is 465.2 m.

3 Ac = cp, AB ± DE

Equal sides

They have longths that one equal Lengths. Therefore, Def. of

Congruent lines

Since the three sides are corresponding
