The complete question: <span>Megan bikes 6 miles west to get from her apartment to school. After school, she bikes 8 miles north to her friend's house. How far is Megan's apartment from her friend's house, measured in a straight line?

So,Megan's apartment, the school, and Megan's friend's house form a right triangle with legs 6 miles and 8 miles as you can see in the attached picture; the hypotenuse of the right triangle is the straight distance is from Megan's apartment to her friend's house. To find that distance we are going to use the Pythagorean theorem:
</span>h= \sqrt{(6mi)^2+(8mi)^2}
h= \sqrt{36mi^2+64mi^2}
h= \sqrt{100mi^2}
h=10mi
<span>
We can conclude that distance between Megan's apartment and her friend's house is 10 miles.</span>

Which of the following statements about trapezoids is true? 
maw [93]

    D one pair of opposite sides is parallel is the answer because trapezoids are another pair angled towards each and if  you follow long enough they will intersect. A couldn't be true because if ALL the angles are corresponding angles you would need two pairs of parallel lines. B isn't correct because the sides would need to be parallel for that too. C well you've already proved they don't have two pairs of parallel lines.

Hope this helps :)

MissTica

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

So! We have to do 2/3 since the formula says h/3 * a^2 = V. So h/3 = 2/3.

Now we have to do 24 * 3/2 to get 36! Now let's take the square root of 36 to get our answer of 6
