Answer:

Cory drove 56 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve the present problem, the Pythagorean theorem must be used, as the displacements towards the south and east operate as legs and the diagonal return as hypotenuse, forming a right triangle:

7 ^ 2 + 24 ^ 2 = X ^ 2

49 + 576 = X ^ 2

2√625 = X

25 = X

Thus, since he traveled 7 miles south, 24 miles east, and then 25 miles diagonally toward his house, in total he traveled 56 miles (7 + 24 + 25).

alexdok [17]
The equation is:
h ( t ) = - 16 t² + 60 t + 3
The toy rocket will reach the ground when: h ( t ) = 0
- 16 t² + 60 t + 3 = 0
t _{12} =  \frac{-60+/- \sqrt{3600+192} }{-32}
t 1 = - 0.05
t 2 = 3.8

What is the area of the yellow triangle?
lesantik [10]

I can't see pictures, but to find the area of a triangle, you multiply the dimensions, as you would a rectangle, but divide the area by 2.

For example, the dimensions of a triangle are 4 and 6.

Multiply the two.

4x6=24.

But don't stop there. Divide 24 by 2.

24/2=12.

So the area of the example triangle is 12.

hope it helps
