Answer:

\sqrt{29}\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a right triangle

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

c^2=a^2+b^2

where

c is the hypotenuse (the greater side)

a and b are the legs (perpendicular sides)

In this problem we have

a=2\ units\\b=5\ units

substitute

c^2=2^2+5^2

c^2=29

c=\sqrt{29}\ units

The inside wheels of a car traveling on a circular path are rotating half as fast as the outside wheels. The front two wheels ar
barxatty [35]

Answer:

  about 37.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

If the outside wheels are turning twice as fast, they go twice the distance in the same time. The distance they travel is proportional to the radius of the circle, so the outside circle must have twice the radius of the inside circle.

Adding 6 ft to the radius of the inside circle doubles the radius, so the inside circle's radius must be 6 feet. Then the circumference of the inside circle is ...

  C = 2πr = 2π(6 ft) = 12π ft ≈ 37.7 ft
