Answer 9.75 ft
Reason
Using the Pythagorean theory,
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (the hypotenuse)
Since we know the diagonal measurement (the hypotenuse) we will call c=12
We know one leg is 7, so we will call b=7
Now we will solve for “a”
Changing the equation to subtract
c^2 - b^2 = a^2
Substitute in our numbers
12^2 - 7^2 = a^2
144-49= a^2
95 = a^2
Take square root of both sides

9.746 = “a” the unknown length
Round to nearest hundredth
9.75

I need help with part a and b, please help
yarga [219]
A. so the entire length of the to would be 25. You know 9 of those feet are not rope so you would subtract that from 25
25-9=16
16 would be the all the rope on top and you only want one side, so you would divide it by 2. The top right piece of rope would be 8ft long
Part b is the picture
