Explain how the pythagorean theorem is used to derive the distance formula​

Mathematics

Answer:

In the Pythagorean Theorem, a right triangles hypotenuse is found by a^2 +b^2= c^2. The distance formula is basically the same thing. With two points, a right triangle can be formed and the slop would be the hypotenuse. That's where the distance formula comes from

What are the circumference and area of a circle with radius 7in. Round to the nearest tenth.
Natalka [10]

Circumference is 40 in and area is 150 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the circumference of the circle when radius = 7 in

Circumference = 2πr = 2 × 22/7 × 7 = 44 in ≈ 40 in

  • Step 2: Find the area of the circle.

Area = πr² = 22/7 × 7² = 154 in² ≈ 150 in²

What is the total volume of the snow used to make the snowman if the head is 12 inches wide, the middle is 16 inches wide, and t
Nutka1998 [239]
The snowman is made of 3 spheres (balls) of snow. The diameters, from top to bottom, are 12, 16, 18 inches
Therefore, the radii of the 3 spheres are, respectively, 6, 8, and 9 inches.

The volume of a sphere of radius, r, is given by the formula: V = 4/3 π r3
So, the total volume of snow is the sum of the 3 volumes: V = 4/3 π (63 + 83 + 93)
= 4/3 π (1,457)
=6,099.97
Your answer would be D. 6,099.97
I hope this helps!
