Question

A pole that is 6.5 feet long will fit into a closet with dimensions of 2' x 3' x 4'. True or False?

Answer 1

2^2 + 3^2 + 4^2
4+9+16 = 29

sqrt(29) is the distance from corner to corner...

Answer 2

that lies between 5 and 6 so id say false

Answer 3

We could chop the pole up; just saying. xD

Answer 4

or..... quit collecting poles :)

Answer 5

I like that idea much better. Wouldn't math be more interesting if it gave scenarios like "Patrica the stripper must store her stripper pole away from sight when her mother comes in town, will it fit in her closet or will she have to take it to the garage?"

Answer 6
