Use the Pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c²


c = hypotenuse (which means) = 53

a and b are equal to the side length
So a = 21.

Use the formula and solve.
21² + b² = 53²
441 + b² = 2809
b² = 2368
b = 48.66210024238575 or 8√37

Sasha can run at an average speed of 934 9 3 4 min/mi. She runs at this speed for 6814 68 1 4 min. How many miles does Sasha run
lutik1710 [3]
I don't know what the spaces are meant for but I think that means 934 and 6814 only. Another point is, speed should be expressed in units of distance over time. So that would be miles/min.

So, distance could be calculated by multiplying speed and time.

d = 934 mi/min * 6814 min
d = 6,364,276 miles
