Question

Four students are working in a group and are asked to find the length of BC. Which two students set up the problem correctly?

Answer 1

\[Moe: x = \sqrt{(5 - 1)^{2}+ (1 - 4)^{2}}\]
Jimmy: x2 = 32 + 42
Alice: x = 3 + 4
Jane: x = \[Jane: x =\sqrt{(5-1^{2} - (1-4)^{2}} \]

Answer 2

@jojor_124 what grade is this

Answer 3

As in school? 10th grade. Geometry, and stuff.

Answer 4

Hmmm

Answer 5

Look I really want to help but I'm only in 8th grade algebra right now, this upcoming year I'm going into 9th grade geometry, I'm not really familiar with this stuff :/ I could try to find someone smarter to help you though lol

Jimmy says \(x=37\)

Answer 14

Alice says \(x=7\)

Answer 15

And Jane says \(x= \sqrt{7}\)

Answer 16
