Question

HURRY!

A map of an obstacle course is shown in the graph. The running path for the course is shaped like a right triangle where each unit is equal to 1 meter.

Part A: Find the distance in meters from the starting point to obstacle 2. Show every step of your work. (3 points)



Part B: How many meters is one full lap around the course? Show every step of your work. (1 point)

Answer 1

A) distance from starting point = (12^2 + 5^2)^1/2 = 13

The distance from the starting point to obstacle 2 is 13 m

B) 1 lap = 13 m + 12 m + 5 m = 30 m
