Answer:

it takes longer for the boat to get back because it's moving against the current. to see how fast the boat is moving, you divide the amount of miles traveled, by how long it took.

240/20 = 12

in still water the boat travels it's 12 miles per hour

240/ 60 = 4

against the current, the boat travels 4 miles per hour

if you need to find the speed of the current, you need to find the resistance that's going against the boat making it slow down. you do that by doing        12 - 4 = 8 miles per hour is the speed of the current.

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps :)

Ah yes, good ol’ Pythagorean’s theorem.

The hypotenuse is the opposite of the 90 degree angle, the longest side of the triangle.

The legs are opposite of the acute angles

Formula: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

2:

Let’s plug in some values

(6)^2 + (3)^2 = c^2

C = 6.7

The side will be 6.7 units

3)

Let’s plug in some values

(13.3)^2 = (9.7)^2 + (b)^2

(13.3)^2 - (9.7)^2 = b^2

176.89 - 94.09 = b^2

b = 9.1

The side will be 9.1 units
