It forms a right triangle.

To find X you can use the Pythagorean theorem which would be written as x^2 = a^2 + b^2

This can be rewritten as x = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)

Using the dimensions of the tree the answer would be :

B. x = sqrt(8^2 + 13^2)

Josh is hiking Glacier National Park. He has now hiked a total of 17 \text{ km}17 km17, start text, space, k, m, end text and is

EastWind [94]

Answer:

The equation to determine the total length in kilometers is $\frac{h}{2} =(17+2)$

The total length in kilometers of Josh’s hike is 38 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let the total length in kilometers of Josh’s hike be h.

Now Given that He has now hiked a total of 17 km and is 2 km short of being 1/2 of the way done with his hike.

It means that to reach half of the length of total length Josh needs 2 more km to add in his hiking which is done which is of 17 km.

Framing the above sentence in equation form we get;

$\frac{h}{2}=(17+2)$

Hence, The equation to determine the total length in kilometers is $\frac{h}{2} =(17+2)$

Now Solving the above equation we get;

First we will multiply 2 on both side using Multiplication property we get;

$2\times \frac{h}{2}= 2\times(17+2)\\\\h =2\times 19 =38 \ km$

Hence, The total length in kilometers of Josh’s hike is 38 km.
