Question

James is at the top of a 30 foot building(length) and asks his friend to throw a football. If Kylie is 20 feet from the base of the building(length), what is the distance of the hypotenuse.

Answer 1

22.36 feet

Explanation:

30^2=20^2+x^2

900=400+x^2

900-400=x^2

x^2= 500

x=√500

x=23.36
