The distance the player is from the right post is = 5.1 meters
<h3>Calculation of distance using Pythagorean theorem</h3>
The Pythagorean theorem states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.
Formula for the Pythagorean theorem =
a²= b²+c²
From the diagram given,
The hypotenuse (a) = x²
b= 1.82²
c = 4.8²
x² = 1.82² + 4.8²
x²= 3.3124 + 23.04
x²= 26.3524
a= √26.3524
a= 5.1 meters.

The direct variation equation is:
d=kt
where d is the distance that the giraffe travels
k is the constant of variation
and t is time
Now we are told that the giraffe can travel 800 ft in 20 seconds, so we can solve for the constant of variation (k)
800=k(20) divide both sides by 20
k=40-------------and the units are ft per sec
So now we can write
d=40t
ck
d=40t
800ft=40*20 ft
800 ft= 800 ft
Hope this helps!
