Answer:

101 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The direct path across the stream and perpendicular to both sides of the stream is one leg of a right triangle. The 20 meter distance on the arriving side of the stream is another leg of the right triangle. The path he actually took is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

leg 1 = 99 m

leg 2 = 20 m

hypotenuse = ?

We have a right triangle, and we know the lengths of the two legs. We need to find the length of the hypotenuse, so we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

99^2 + 20^2 = c^2

9801 + 400 = c^2

c^2 = 10201

c = sqrt(10201) = 101

Answer: 101 meters

Answer:

The radius of the inner circle is 14 ft. Since the outer circle is 3 ft more than the inner circle, its radius is 17 ft. The circumference formula is 2(pi)radius (or 2(22/7)17 in this case). The circumference of the outer circle is 106.85 ft (or 106.9 if rounding). To find the difference, you would subtract the smallest FROM the greatest:

106.85 - 88 = 18.85 ft (or 18.9 if rounding)
