Answer:

The first option (5.7km)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a right angle triangle and we know two of its sides we can easily find out the thirds side (the value of d) by using the Pathagoras Theorem. In our case 7 and d are our legs and the hypotenuse is equal to 9, so...

(Based on the Pathagoras Theorem)

$c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2}$

$9^{2} = 7^{2} + d^{2}$

$d^{2} = 9^{2} - 7^{2} \\d^{2} = 81 - 49\\d^{2} = 32\\d = \sqrt{32}\\$

d ≈ 5.7km

There for aproximate distance across the lake is equal to 5.7km

So sorry to ask another question but I need some help-

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

14x + 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of three sides of a triangle are 5x + 9 feet, 2x + 14 feet, and 7x feet.

The perimeter of a triangle: the sum of all of its sides.

5x + 9 + 2x + 14 + 7x

14x + 23

It's the expression of the perimeter of the triangle. Once you will be asked to find x, you'll probably be given the exact perimeter of the triangle.
