So pythagrorean theorem is the ideal way and easiest way to solve this
a^2+b^2=c^2
8.5^2+11^2=x^2
72.25+121=193.25
square root of 193.25=13.9014 or 13.9 in
9.5^2+15^2=x^2
90.25+225=315.25
square root of 315.25=17.7553 or 17.8 ft
V= 15 steps are down below
13/25
first off, to turn a fraction into a decimal, you divide numerator by denominator
in this case, 13/25=.52
answer is .52
The answer would be 3 ft.
Is this a simultaneous equation question?
