Answer:

Okay, here's the method I'm going to use.

If you drive north 6 miles, and then drive east 19 miles, you are technically making a triangle.

                    19 miles

           l_______________

6 milesl

           l

You are just missing the last side of the triangle: the straight line stretching from across your starting point to the ending point. You can find this by using the Pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

6^2 + 19^2 = c^2

36 + 361 = c

397 = c

\sqrt{397} = 19.924859

Rounded to the nearest tenth, your answer is

19.9 miles

What is the approximate volume of a right cone with a diameter of 10 meters and a height of 5 meters use 3.14 pie
ehidna [41]
First of all, it's not pie. It's pi.

Now, the problem.
Radius is always 1/2 x d (d meaning diameter)
That gives us 5.

The formula is 3.14 x 5^2(h/3)
If you solve it from left to right, you get 130.83
