Question

Wayne used this diagram to compute the distance from Ferris, to Dunlap. to Butte. How far is the distance directly from Ferris to Butte?

Answer 1

Use Pythagorean Theorem...

\(\huge{a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}}\) We input....

\(\huge\color{green}{15^{2}+21^{2}=c^{2}}\) In which we would simplify...

\(\huge\color{purple}{225+441=c^{2}}\) In which we add...

\(\huge\color{orange}{666=c^{2}}\) Then we square root the number....

\(\huge\color{red}{\sqrt{666}=c}\)
