Phillip is standing across the classroom from his desk. He walks x steps in a straight line to his right, turns left at a 90° an

gle, and then walks another y steps in a straight line to arrive at his desk. The shortest path from Phillip's original position to his desk is d steps.

For this case, we can model the problem as a triangle with a right angle.
 Where,
 x, y: lengths of the sides of the triangle
 d: hypotenuse of the triangle
 We then have the following relationship:
 d ^ 2 = x ^ 2 + y ^ 2

 Clearing d we have:
 d = \sqrt{ x^2 + y^2}
 Answer:
 
A functions that would best model the situation above is:
 
D square root

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding angles of both the squares are congruent. (angles of a square measure 90°)

Ratio of the sides of the given squares = \frac{\text{Side length of small square}}{\text{Side length of the large square}}

                                                                 = \frac{2}{5}

This ratio of side lengths is constant for all corresponding sides.

Therefore, corresponding sides are proportional.

Since, all angles of both the squares are congruent and all the sides are proportional, both the squares will be similar.

Scale factor = \frac{\text{Side length of large square}}{\text{Side length of the smaller square}}

                    = \frac{5}{2}

                    = 2.5

This sequence of similarity transformations shows the figures are similar.

What is the radius of a circle having circumference 44 cm​
horsena [70]
Just do circumference over pi (this'll give you the diameter) and then divide by 2 to get radius like so:

44/pi=14.0056349921/2=7.0028175 is your answer

îdk how you wanna round but nearest hundredth would be 7.00 cm while nearest tenth would be 7.0 cm and nearest whole number would be 7 cm
