Question 20 Unsaved
Brenda lives 4 miles due south of the pool, and Michelle lives 3 miles due east of the pool. What is the straight line distance between their homes? (It makes a right triangle.)
Use the Pythagorean Theorem: a²+b²=c², where "a" and "b" are the sides of the triangle that form the right angle, and "c" is the hypotenuse, or the diagonal line.
3²+4²= 25, and the square root of 25 is 5, so the answer is A.) 5 miles.
