Answer:

Tommy and Manuel are 16 ft apart

Step-by-step explanation:

The locations of all three players are shown in the image below

They form a right triangle where the hypotenuse is 20 ft, and one of the legs is 12 ft. We must find the other leg.

We must use Pythagoras's theorem. Being a and b the legs of a right triangle and c its hypotenuse, then

c^2=a^2+b^2

Knowing c and one of the legs, say b:

a^2=c^2-b^2

Using the values c=20, b=12 we find

a^2=20^2-12^2=400-144=256

a=\sqrt{256}=16

So, Tommy and Manuel are 16 ft apart

Which set of polar coordinates describes the same location as the rectangular coordinates (-3,3)
Readme [11.4K]
To convert from rectangular coordinates (x,y) to polar coordinates (r, θ), the following equations should be used:

r = sqrt( x^2 + y^2)
<span>θ = tan^-1 (y/x)
</span>
Substituting (-3,3) accordingly to the equations, we obtain r equal to 3*sqrt(2) and θ equal to -π/4. Thus, the polar coordinates equivalent to (-3,3) is (3*sqrt(2), -π/4).
