Answer:

8.94 if no rounding is necessary.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem. What we know is only one leg and the hypotenuse, sooo...

8² + b² = 12²

64 + b² = 144

Subtract 64 from both sides...

64 - 64 + b² = 144 - 64

b² = 80

$\sqrt{80}$ = 8.94 if you're not rounding.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

6√2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the solution diagram drawn :

We have a right angled triangle, the distance between Walmart mad chick-FIL is a measure of the hypotenus of the right angled triangle ;

The hypotenus, = √(opposite² + adjacent²)

Hypotenus = √6² + 6²

Hypotenus = √(36 + 36)

Hypotenus = √72

Hypotenus = √36 * 2 = √36 * √2 = 6√2 miles
