If the path runs diagonally, then a right angle triangle is made, with the width and length as the two sides, and the route taken as the hypotenuse.

Pythagorus' Theorem tells us that; <em /><em /><u><em /></u><em>A</em>² <em>= B</em>² <em>+ C</em>²

Where B and C are the two sides of a right angled triangle, and A is the hypotenuse.

Route taken = A

A² = B² + C²

A² = 3² + 6²

A² = 9 + 36

A² = 45

A = √45

A = 6.7 miles

As it will create a triangle with 90o angle the pythagory says 6+3²=x²⇔ x²=45⇔ x=√45

1/4+2/3-1/2= how do I solve this
Ann [662]

Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First you add 1/4+2/3.

You need to change the denominator so that they are equal to each other

If you multiply the 1/4 by 3/3 you will get 3/12 which is equal to 1/4

Then you need to do the same to 2/3. This time you need to multiply it by 4/4 to get the same denominator which will be 2/3*4/4=8/12

Then you add 3/12+8/12=11/12. You don't need to add the denominator.

After this you will need to subtract 11/12 and 1/2. This time you need to only change the denominator for 1/2.

You multiply the denominator and numerator by 6/6 to 1/2 and you will get 6/12 then you are going to subtract 11/12-6/12 and you will get 5/12

What does it mean to square a negative number​
Andrej [43]

Answer:

This is because to square a number just means to multiply it by itself. For example, (-2) squared is (-2)(-2) = 4. Note that this is positive because when you multiply two negative numbers you get a positive result.
