Question

May I please receive help?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Apply Pythagoren Theorem.

`{x}^(2) + {y}^(2) = {c}^(2)`

where x and y is the legs (the sides that form a right triangle) and c is the hypotenuse.

the legs are 6 and our unknown. so let x represent the unknown

`{6}^(2) + {x}^(2) = {11}^(2)`

`36 + {x}^(2) = 121`

`{x}^(2) = 85`

`x = √(85)`

x=9.2

Answer 2

9.2 ft

Explanation:

The shape is a triangle, the 11 ft is your hypotenuse

You need to use the Pythagorean Theorem!

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (solve for a, the missing length that they ask for)

so --->

a^2 + (6^2) = 11^2

a^2 + 36 = 121

~subtract 36 to the right side~

a^2 = 85

now find the square root of 85:

a = 9.21954

round it to the nearest tenth:

a = 9.2

final answer: 9.2 ft

hope this helpsss
