Answer 1

A? @OrangeMaster

Answer 2

For Q4 remember that N-S and E-W lines cross over at right angles, put a dot on a piece of paper representing Cross Creek then dots for the other two locations.

Answer 3

I got 91.

Answer 4

Do you want to see the math @CrazyCountryGirl

Answer 5

52*52=2704
75*75=5625

5625+2704=8329

\[\sqrt{8329}=91\]

Answer 6

Um...Yes please. :)

Answer 7

I am not 100% sure, but I think that C should always be longer than A and B

Answer 8

So the answer A should be ruled out from the beginning.

Answer 9

What is the length of the diagonal of a rectangle whose width is 100 centimeters and whose length is 180 centimeters?
(Round your answer to the nearest whole centimeter.)



A.


202 cm


B.


206 cm


C.


209 cm


D.


212 cm





A???????????????????????????

Answer 10

Close, it's B. I'll show the math is a sec.

Answer 11

Yeah, I though it was A or B. :)

Answer 12

100*100=10,000
180*180=32,400

32,400+10,000=42,400\[\sqrt{42,400}=205.9\]205.9 gets rounded to 206

Answer 13

Sorry, I got the answers. I thought A was 206. :) I meant B, I was like I was so sure I was right, and so I looked at the answer choices and I was like ooooohhhhh that makes sense now. :)
