Question

To the nearest hundredth, what is the length of line segment AB?

Answer 1

Answer:

5.83 units

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached picture.  You can use the Pythagorean Theorem.  I added some lines to show the legs of a right triangle.  AB is the hypotenuse.

$3^2+5^2=(AB)^2\\\\9+25 = (AB)^2\\\\34=(AB)^2\\\\AB=\sqrt{34} \approx 5.83$
