Question

Can someone please explain to me how this works or something please? This is a very hard subject for me T-T

Answer 1

Answer: 29.15

Explanation:

`a^(2)`+
`b^(2)`=
`c^(2)`

`25^(2)`+
`15^(2)`=
`c^(2)`

625+225=
`c^(2)`

`√(850)`=
`\sqrt{c^(2) }`

29.2=C

Answer 2

29.2 ft

Explanation:

a^2 is the base so it’s how long the shadow is.

b^2 is the leg so it’s the height of the tree

c^2 is the hypotenuse so it’s the top of the tree to end of the shadow (what your trying to find)

25^2 + 15^2 = c^2

625+ 225= c^2

850= c^2

(square root both sides)

29.2= c
