Question

Marley runs 5 yards down the track from point A to point B, and then stops and runs

Answer 1

Answer:

$\sqrt{61}$=AC or 7.8102=AC

Step-by-step explanation:

If we connect a line from point A to point C we create a triangle, and we can use pythagorean theorem to find this distance. So the line from point A to point C will be our hypotenuse and the other two distances will be out side lengths.

$5^{2}+6^{2}=AC^{2}$

25+36=$AC^{2}$

61=$AC^{2}$

$\sqrt{61}$=AC or 7.8102=AC
