One of the largest swimming pools in the world is in Garden City, Kansas. It is rectangular and
measures 67 meters by 100 meters. If you swim diagonally across the pool, how many meters would
you swim? Round your answer to the nearest whole meter

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is 7,000 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

because you do 67*100 which equals to 6,700 and then u round it which makes it equal to 7,00 meter

Answer:

120 meters (approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of the rectangle like two triangles;

if we find the hypotenuse of one, then we know the length of the rectangle across

Remember the Pythagorean theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the sides of the triangle

so then substitute in the known values:

a = 100

b = 67

now solve

100^2 + 67^2 = c^2

14489 = c^2

sqrt(14489) = c

120.37 = approx c
