The yellow path and green path are the same distance.
The yellow path and green path are the same distance.
The green path is half the distance of the shorter path.
The green path is half the distance of the shorter path.
The yellow path is double the distance of the green path.
The yellow path is double the distance of the green path.
what you have already tried, or what ideas you may have to solve this problem?
To find the correct statement, we will need to compare the lengths of the yellow path and the green path in the diagram provided. We can then determine which statement is true based on the lengths of these paths.
can you show me the calculations
Based on the diagram provided:
- The yellow path appears to consist of 4 units.
- The green path appears to consist of 2 units.
Therefore, the green path is half the distance of the yellow path, making the statement "The green path is half the distance of the shorter path" true.
