Message: Chad climbs a 57-foot tower to ride a straight water slide. After landing in the splash pool, he walks 76 feet back to the base of the tower. How far did he travel in all? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth. ms sue im not sure if this right? my answer is 95feet
He made a right angle triangle, so we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
57^2 + 76^2 = c^2
3,249 + 5,776 = 9,025
c = 95
The total he traveled is 95 + 57 + 76 = ?
thank you so much yes idi pythagorean theorem but im not sure if c is the looking problem but im right thans a lot
228 feet
Yes, he traveled 228 feet.
To find out how far Chad traveled in total, we need to add the distance he climbed to the tower and the distance he walked back to the base.
Given that Chad climbed a 57-foot tower and then walked 76 feet back to the base, we can add these two distances together:
57 + 76 = 133
Therefore, Chad traveled a total distance of 133 feet.
