What potential strategies could you use to find the distance from the
Bumper Cars to the roller Coaster? Check all that apply.
::Draw the diagonal; drop a right triangle to see the vertical distance of 6
and horizontal distance of 9; Add 6 + 9 = 15; 15 units
::Draw the diagonal; drop a right triangle to see the vertical distance of 9
and horizontal distance of 6; use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for
the diagonal distance; approximately 3.87 units
::Use the distance formula using the points (-5, 4) and (-2, 4); approximately
2.6 units
::Use the distance formula using the points (-5, 4) and (4, -2); approximately
10.8 units
::Count the diagonal squares from the bumper cars to the roller coaster.
