Unfortunately there isn't enough information.
Check out the diagram below. We have segment BC equal to 120 meters long. Points B, C, D and E are all on the edge of the same circle. According to the inscribed angle theorem, angles BDC and BEC are congruent. This shows that the surveyor could be at points D or E, or the surveyor could be anywhere on the circle. There are infinitely many locations for the surveyor to be at, which leads to infinitely many possible widths of this canal.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We want to find the distance between the points (2, -2) and (-4, 7).
To do that, we can use the distance formula.
The distance formula is given as , where
and
are points
We have everything needed to find the distance, but let's label the values of the points to avoid any confusion
Now substitute those values into the formula and solve
Simplify
Square the numbers under the radical
Add the numbers under the radical together
Simplify the square root
Hope this helps!
