Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In any right triangle, the Pythagorean theorem states:
, where 
and 
are two legs of the triangle and 
is the hypotenuse.
Plugging in given values, we have:
3.5 : 5
7 : 10
14 : 20
17.5 : 25
At that rate, she can read 17.5 pages in 25 minuets.
Divide both 7 and 10 by 2, which gets 3.5 and 5
5 * 5 = 25
5 * 3.5 = 17.5
Therefore, in 25 minuets, she can read 17.5 pages.
A magazine is much smaller than a meter stick. Although it would be possible to measure the dimensions of the magazine using the meter stick, since there are centimeter marking on them, a ruler would be a much more appropriate tool to use because of its similarity in size to the magazine.
