Answer:
1. 30 ft
2. sqrt(2164) yd
3: 12 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
For all three questions I'll be using the Pythagorean Theorem which states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the base and height
Question 1:
40^2 + d^2 = 50^2
1600 + d^2 = 2500
d^2 = 900
d = 30
Question 2:
42^2 + 20^2 = c^2
2,164 = c^2
c = sqrt(2164)
Question 3:
5^2 + a^2 = 13^2
25 + a^2 = 169
a^2 = 144
a = 12
