Hypotenus, h = sqrt(opposite² + adjacent²)

h = sqrt(7² + 5²)

h = sqrt(49 + 25)

h = sqrt(74)

h = 8.6 feet

Handles-n-Things is a small enterprise company buying new carpet for their office room. The room is 15 ft. wide and 24 ft. long.
Helen [10]

Hey there!

To find the area, we multiply the length by the width! The carpet will cover the area of the room.

24×15=360

But, the carpeting is sold in square yards, not feet. There are three feet in a yard, which means that one yard is 1/3 feet. Since we have 360 square feet, we will divide it by three to get yards.

360/3=120

Therefore, the office would need 120 square yards of carpeting.

Have a wonderful day!

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

The puck traveled 53.8 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Currently, the player is 55 meters away from the opponent's goal.

After the shot, the puck is 120 centimeters = 1.2 meters from the opponents goal.

So, this means that the puck traveled 55 - 1.2 = 53.8 meters.
