Frances and Joyce decided to take a shortcut through the woods to go to their friend's house. When they went home they decided to take the long way around the woods to avoid getting muddy shoes. If the length of the shortcut is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the other two sides, what total distance did they walk?

Length of shortcut  = 15 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Length of shortcut is equal to square root of the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

So,

We can find length of shortcut.

Assume:

Length of other two side area 12 km and 13 km

So,

H = √P² + B²

Length of shortcut  = √12² + 13²

Length of shortcut  = √144 + 169

Length of shortcut  = √225

Length of shortcut  = 15 km

i think it is c, not positive though

step-by-step explanation:

$4034.40

the perimeter of the field is the sum of the lengths of the four sides:

47 yd + 158 yd + 47 yd + 158 yd = 410 yd

the cost of 3 ft (1 yd) of fence is 3×$3.28 = $9.84.

so the cost of jake's wood perimeter fance is

(410 yd) × ($9.84 /yd) = $4034.40
