OpenStudy (anonymous):

im getting z=10.1

OpenStudy (adi3):

how

OpenStudy (adi3):

how did u do it

OpenStudy (adi3):

okay

OpenStudy (adi3):

how did u get 11.3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y^2=8.2^2+7.8^2\] \[y=\sqrt{8.2^2+7.8^2}\] \[y=11.3\]

OpenStudy (adi3):

okay

OpenStudy (adi3):

how did u get z = 10.1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[5^2+z^2=11.3^2\] \[z^2=11.3^3-5^2\] \[z=\sqrt{11.3^2-5^2}\] \[z=10.1\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this right?

OpenStudy (adi3):

did u check your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its not from book its from website

OpenStudy (adi3):

OpenStudy (adi3):

lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8.2**2+7.8**2-5**2=103**2=10.15 z=10.15 using a bit of a variation of pathagirum theorem

OpenStudy (adi3):

can be

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8.2**2+7.8**2=60.84**2=7.8 y=7.8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont understand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your method is correct and the answer is too. z = 10.15. Since all the values given have two significant digits try entering 10 as the answer.
