Answer:
28 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Mr.math is 6ft but his shadow is 5ft so that mean the pole is 28ft n the shadow is 27ft
6-1=5
?-1=27
27+1=28
?=28
The simple solutions are:
Right 6: (-2+6,-3) = (4,3)
Left 6: (-2-6,-3) = (-8,-3)
Up 6: (-2,-3+6) = (-2, 3)
Down 6: (-2,-3-6) = (-2,-9)
Those are for horizontal or vertical
line segments.
c = 8.4m is the answer.
a = 6m
b = 6m
c = ?
According to the Pythagorean theorem,
a² + b² = c²
6² + 6² = c²
36 + 36 = c²
c² = 72
c = 8.4m
∴ The mouse runs 8.4 m from the opposite corners of the room.
