Answer:

About 30.98386677 ft above the water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2.

So when you plug in the numbers it would be x^2+22^2=38^2. Move 22^2 to the right side giving you x^2=38^2-22^2. Then subtract and take the square root of x^2.

Harriet has 3/4 tank of gas left in her car. if she needs 1/4 tank to go to her friends house and another 1/4 tank to get back h
pashok25 [27]
Ok so if you add the two 1/4's you will find how much gas she needs total to complete the trip. So do 1/4 + 1/4 and get 1/2. Next you can see that 3/4 is larger than 1/2, so she has enough gas.
Hope that helps!

How to calulate how high a tree that is 5m high and shadow is 4m?
Deffense [45]
If you are trying to figure out the distance between the top of the tree and the end of the shadow, use a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the legs of the right triangle.
5^2 + 4^2 = c^2
25 + 16 = c^2
41 = c^2
c = √41 = 6.4 meters
