To find the length of segment AC, we must find the total rise and total run between the two points.
Point C is located at (-5, 5). Point A is located at (3,-1). To find the rise, subtract the y-value of A from the y-value of C:

The rise of this segment is 6.
To find the run, subtract the x-value of A from the x-value of C:

The run of this segment is 8.
We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of this segment. The theorem uses the following formula:

The segment represents the hypotenuse, and the rise and run represent the legs of this segment. We know that the two legs' lengths are 6 and 8, so plug them into the equation:



Square root both sides to get c by itself:


The length of segment AC is
10.

Answer:
24.3 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
If h is the height of the ladder up the tree, the geometry can be modeled as a right triangle with legs h and 6, and hypotenuse 25. The Pythagorean theorem gives you the relation ...
h² +6² = 25²
h² = 625 -36 = 589
h = √589 ≈ 24.3
The ladder reaches about 24.3 feet up the tree.
Answer:
108.8888...
Step-by-step explanation:
If you want to find the percentage a value is of another number, you divide the number by the percentage in decimal form:
196 / 1.8 = 108.8888...
