Answer:

The distance between the tire swing and the monkey bars is 20 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have drawn the diagram four reference.

Given:

the slide is 12 feet due west of the tire swing

So according the diagram;

TS = 12 feet

Also Given:

slide is 16 feet due south of the monkey bars.

So according the diagram;

MS = 16 feet

We need to find the distance between the tire swing and the monkey bars.

according to diagram we need to find the MT.

Solution:

assuming it to be right angle triangle with right angle at S.

we have;

In Δ MTS;

\angle S = 90\°

TS = 12 feet

MS = 16 feet

Now applying Pythagoras theorem which states that;

"Sum of the square of the two side of the triangle is equal to square of the hypotenuse."

framing in equation form we get;

MT^2=TS^2+MS^2

Substituting the values we get;

MT^2= 12^2+16^2= 144+256 =400

Taking square root on both side we get;

\sqrt{MT^2}=\sqrt{400} \\ \\MT =20\ ft

Hence the distance between the tire swing and the monkey bars is 20 feet.

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Belinda's score is 32 strokes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the score of John be "x" and Belinda be "y".

It is given that, in the game of golf, John's score was 10 less than two times Belinda's score.

Also, John's score is 54 strokes.

The above equation can be written as ;

x = 2(y) -10

Here, x = 54,

54 = 2(y) -10

64 = 2(y)

y = 32

Thus, Belinda's score is 32 strokes.

An advertisement for a circular rug says that the rug has a diameter of 6 feet. Find the relative error of this measurement
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

1. 8.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Relative error = absolute error/expected measurement

The expected measurement is given as 6 ft.

Now, the absolute error is usually equal to half of a unit of the measure.

This means the absolute error in this case is ½ × 1 = 0.5 ft

Thus, the exact measurement will be;

6 ± 0.5

Thus;

Relative error = 0.5/6

Relative error = 0.083

Expressing it in percentage gives 8.3%
