Answer:
d = √91 ft = about 9.53 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
use pythagorean theorem which is a²+b²=c²
(the hypotnuse which is opposite side of the right angle is always going to be C in the pythagorean theorem)
a = 3 b = ? c = 10
(3)² + b² = (10)²
9 + b² = 100
subtract 9 from both sides
b² = 91
take the square root of both sides
b = ±√91
so the side d = √91 ft = about 9.53 ft
