and 10.6 is already written as a decimal.
2 3/4a=19 1/4
÷2 3/4 ÷2 3/4
a=1/7
The answer is 41 miles
Imagine the diagonal distance is called c
Using Pythagorean theorem 40^2 + 9^2 = c^2
1600 + 81 = c^2
The square root of 1681 is 41
So c = 41
Answer:
25, i had the same question
In 8, 9, 10, all the triangles are similar, meaning corresponding sides have the same ratio.
8. hypotenuse / (short side) = 25/x = x/9
x² = 25*9 = 5²×3²
x = √(5²×3²) = 5*3 = 15
9. (long side) / (short side) = x/7 = 9/x
x² = 7*9
x = √(9*7) = 3√7
10. (short side) / (long side) = x/48 = 48/64
x = 48²/64 = 36
