Pythagorean Theorem Task Card #1 A pool table is 9 feet long and 5 feet wide. How far is it from one corner pocket to the diagonally opposite corner pocket? Round to the nearest tenth.

Respuesta :

A right triangle is made where the two legs are 9 ft (a) and 5 ft (b), and we have to find the hypotenuse (c). Using Pythagorean Theorem:

c² = a² + b²

c² = 9² + 5²

c² = 81 + 25

c = √106

c ≈ 10.3 ft
