Question

What’s the answer ? i need to pass

Answer 1

The answer is the first one because it just is

Answer 2

14.1 feet

Explanation:

To find the length of web we can use the Pythagoras theorem. In order to find the length of web, we first need to find the length between the corners of the 6 feet length and the 10 feet length. This is because the Pythagoras theorem requires a right-angled triangle, which we can form using 8 as the shortest side, the bottom diagonal as the 2nd side and the strand of web as the hypotenuse.

To find the bottom diagonal we first need to use the lengths of 6 and 10 to use the pythagoras theorem.

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

`6^(2) +10^(2) =c^(2) \\36+100=c^(2) \\136=c^(2)\\√(136) =c\\c=11.662`

(3dp)

Now that we have found the length of the bottom diagonal to be 11.662, we can use this length and the 8 we are given to find the strand of web.

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

`11.662^(2) +8^(2) =c^(2) \\136+64=c^(2)\\200=c^(2)\\√(200) =c\\c=14.14`

Rounded to nearest 10th is 14.1

Hope this helped!
