The distance traveled by the ray will be 26 inches. Then the correct option is B.
<h3>What is coordinate geometry?</h3>
Coordinate geometry is the study of geometry using the points in space. Using this, it is possible to find the distance between the points, the dividing line is m:n ratio, finding the mid-point of the line, etc.
In a science experiment, a student concluded that a ray has to travel a distance from one corner at the top of the rectangular prism to the opposite side where the surface touching the floor is intersected.
If the length, width, and height of the prism are given as 24 inches and 8 inches, 6 inches respectively.
Then the distance traveled by the ray will be
We know the formula
D² = L² + W² + H²
We have
L = 24 in
W = 6 in
H = 8 in
Then the distance will be
D² = 24² + 6² + 8²
D² = 576 + 36 + 64
D² = 676
D = 26 in
Thus, the correct option is B.

#SPJ1
X or Y diagram is the answer to this question
1. true
2. false
3. true
4. false
5. true
Being able to do this problem hinges mainly on your knowing the definitions of the trig functions and being able to read side lengths from the given diagram.
csc theta = hypotenuse / opp side = 4 / √(4^2 + 5^2) = 4 / √41.
sin theta is the reciprocal of csc theta, or √41 / 4.
cot theta is adj side / opp side = 5/4.
