H(ft) = √ (13² - 4²) = 12.4
It is a right-angled triangle and the Pythagorean theorem applies.
THEOREMA (by Pythagoras):
Given a right-angled triangle ABCABC as in the figure, then the relation is valida2 + b2 = c2a2 + b2 = c2where cc is the hypotenuse of the triangle and b, ab, a are the cathets.
h(ft) = √ (13² - 4²) = 12.4
The distance between the bottom of the lighthouse and the boat is 77.6m.
<h3>What is the
distance between the
bottom of the lighthouse and the
boat?</h3>
The lighthouse and the boat would form a right triangle. The height would be the height of the lighthouse. The distance between the top of the lighthouse and boat would be the hypotenuse. The distance between the bottom of the lighthouse and the boat would be the base.
In order to determine the required distance, Pythagoras theorem would be used.
The Pythagoras theorem: a² + b² = c²
- where:
a = length - b = base
- c = hypotenuse
125² = 98² + b²
b² = 125² - 98²
b = √(25² - 98² )
b = 77.6m

Given:
c = cost
p = people
Spent $300
Formula: c=5p+215
Solving for how many people (p)
C=5P+215
(300)=5P+215 (Subtract 215 on both sides)
85=5P (Divide by 5 on both sides)
17=P
The answer is 17. 17 people can afford to host a birthday party.
Answer:
148 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
8 • 12 = 96 + 52 = 148
A foot is 12 inches, and when converting to a smaller unit, you multiply. So, your answer is 148 inches.
Hope this helps! :)
