  • P=100ft
  • H=135ft

We need base

Apply Pythagorean theorem

  • B²=H²-P²
  • B²=135²-100²
  • B²=18225-10000
  • B²=8225
  • B=90.697ft
  • B=90.7ft

Answer:

90.7 ft (nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, this can be modeled as a right triangle, where:

  • AB = hypotenuse = 135 ft
  • AC = height = 100 ft
  • BC = base

To find the base of the triangle (BC), use Pythagoras' Theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2  (where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse)

\implies 100^2+BC^2=135^2

\implies BC^2=135^2-100^2

\implies BC^2=8225

\implies BC=\sqrt{8225}

⇒ BC = 90.7 ft (nearest tenth)

A cab company charges $2.51
kondor19780726 [428]

equation would be the start at 2.51 and go up 1

2.51 + 1x=91.52

we would start by subtracting 2.51

98.01 = x

so they drove 98.01 miles

if you were looking for time you would need the mph if the car was going around 50 it would be close to 2 hours
