Answer:

938 feet

Explanation:

Well to solve this we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem,


a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

So we have a and b which are 900 and 264,

and we need to find c or the walking distance.

So we plug in 900 and 264 for a and b.


(900)^2 + (264)^2 = c^2

So, 900*900 = 810,000

264 * 264 = 69696

810000 + 69696 = 879696

So now we have,

879696 = c^2

To get the c by itself we do,


√(879696) = √(c)

= c = 937.921105424

c = 938 rounded to the nearest foot

Thus,

the solution is 938.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

938 feet

Explanation:

b/c every angle of a rectangle is 90° u can u Pythagorean theroem to solve the question

a*a+ b*b=c*c

900*900+264*264=c*c

c=√879,696

c=938feet
