Last summer, Marrero was at Newgrange, a stone mound in Ireland that has a diameter of 250 feet. He found a walkway 62 feet long
that leads to the center of the mound. Help Marrero find perpendicular distance x from the end of the walkway to either side of the mound.
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The line connecting the center with the end of the walkway is radius and is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
Horizontal leg is the distance x.
<u>Vertical leg has the length:</u>
<u>Using Pythagorean theorem to find the length of x:</u>
- x² = (250/2)² - 63²
- x² = 125² - 63²
- x² = 11656
- x = √11656
- x = 107.96 ≈ 108
