Answer:
sqrt(25/36) = 5/6 or sqrt(25)/36 = 5/36. Based on what your question states.
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Pythagorean Theorem,
a² + b² = c²
c² = 8² + 8²
c² = 64 + 64
c² = 128
c = √128
c =8√2 (radical form) or 11.31 feet (nearest hundredth)
Answer: 11.31 feet
On the X-Y plane, the points p and r are on the vertical line X=x. Then the perpendicular (horizontal) line through p will have the equation Y=y. Points q on that line will have coordinates
... q(<anything>, y)
