Answer 7

if
x=base
y=perpendicular
and
z=hypotenuse then according to pythagorus theorem
\[x^2+y^2=z^2\]

Answer 8

the horizontal distance that the bridge must span to clear the ravine is 100 feet

Answer 9

now use this
in ur case hypotenuse of the right angled triangle is =r

Answer 10

so it will be
\[x^2+y^2=r^2\]
ok?

Answer 11

ok

Answer 12

so thats it?

Answer 13

now u have to solve it for r in terms of x and y then
simply
\[r=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}\]

Answer 14

oh ok

Answer 15

and if the horizontal distence=x=100 then
\[r=\sqrt{100^2+y^2}\]

Answer 16

k?
