Question

May I please receive help?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply Pythagoren Theorem.

${x}^{2} + {y}^{2} = {c}^{2}$

where x and y is the legs (the sides that form a right triangle) and c is the hypotenuse.

the legs are 6 and our unknown. so let x represent the unknown

${6}^{2} + {x}^{2} = {11}^{2}$

$36 + {x}^{2} = 121$

${x}^{2} = 85$

$x = \sqrt{85}$

x=9.2

Answer 2

Answer:

9.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape is a triangle, the 11 ft is your hypotenuse

You need to use the Pythagorean Theorem!

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (solve for a, the missing length that they ask for)

so --->

a^2 + (6^2) = 11^2

      a^2 + 36 = 121

             ~subtract 36 to the right side~

               a^2 = 85

now find the square root of 85:

               a = 9.21954

        round it to the nearest tenth:

                   a = 9.2

final answer: 9.2 ft

hope this helpsss
