Am I Correct?
And I THINK you might be right.
@XioGonz than you say me how you get this answer - the way - i will say you than is right or not
there is a key to solve this problem
The first thing I did was 3959² + x² = (3959 + 3.1)²
im pretty sure ur right cuz ur smart
Next I did 3959² + x² = 3959² + 2.(3959 * 3.1) + 3.1²
So x² = 2.(3959 * 3.1) + 3.1²
x² = 24555.41
sorry what is this 3,1 i dont understand
And x ≈ 156.7 miles
\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @XioGonz And x ≈ 156.7 miles \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) mate just multiply the 9
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh I put it wrong, it's supposed to be 10.2
The first thing I did was 3959² + x² = (3959 + 3.1)² 3,1 what is there ?
\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @jhonyy9 The first thing I did was 3959² + x² = (3959 + 3.1)² 3,1 what is there ? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) 3.1
So it's 3959² + x² = (3959 + 10.2)²
the key pls how can use there pythagora ?
add them then do to the power of 2\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @XioGonz So it's 3959² + x² = (3959 + 10.2)² \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\)
@XioGonz the key where is the right angle to use pythagora ?
\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @jhonyy9 @XioGonz the key where is the right angle to use pythagora ? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\)
yes - but explain it pls
PRetty sure
@XioGonz why is there right angle ?
I'm going to redo the problem.
remember pls the radius on the tangent point of a tangent line on a circle creat always a right angle
\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @jhonyy9 remember pls the radius on the tangent point of a tangent line on a circle creat always a right angle \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) Ohh
this is the key what you need to know to solve this problem
I think I got it now.
ok was my pleasure bye bye
