PLEASE ANSWER ASAP

On the school playground, the slide is due west of the tire swing and due south of the monkey bars. If the distance between the slide and the tire swing is 7 feet and the distance between the tire swing and the monkey bars is 10 feet, how far is the slide from the monkey bars? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth. ​

Answer: use the pythagorean theorem method

A² + B² =C²

7²+ 10² =C²

7•7=49

10•10=100

49+100= 149

the square root of 149 is

12.2.

7²+10²= 12.2² or 12 rounded to the nearest tenth

hope this helps :)
