HELP PLEASE!! ASAP!!

Answer 1

Answer:

The estimated distance is 8.1cm.

The actual distance is 8.106cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the Pythogorean Theorem, c² = a² + b². Then substitute the following values into the formula :

${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {b}^{2}$

Let a = 5.1cm,

Let b = 6.3cm,

${c}^{2} = {5.1}^{2} + {6.3}^{2}$

${c}^{2} = 26.01 + 39.69$

${c}^{2} = 65.7$

$c = \sqrt{65.7}$

$c = 8.106cm \: (3d.p)$
