Question

1. Count the number of squares inside Field A. This is the area of Square A in acres. Write it below: (1 point)
Area = ____16______ acres
2. Count the number of squares inside Field B. This is the area of Square B in acres. Write it below: (1 point)
Area = ____9______ acres
3. SHOW YOUR WORK: Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the area of Field C in acres: (2 points)
A2 + B2 = C2
16^2 + 6^2 = C2
256 + 36 =C2
292 = C2
17.0

Answer 1

YOU SURE

Answer 2

Area = 17.0 acres

Answer 3

My apologies, there was a calculation error in my previous response. The correct calculation is as follows:

A2 + B2 = C2
16^2 + 6^2 = C2
256 + 36 = C2
292 = C2
√292 ≈ 17.08

Therefore, the correct area of Field C is approximately 17.08 acres.
