To apply the Pythagorean theorem, we need to find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides measuring 2.65 and 4.58. The formula for the Pythagorean theorem is:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
where c represents the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b represent the lengths of the other two sides.
Plugging the given values into the equation, we have:
c^2 = 2.65^2 + 4.58^2
c^2 = 7.0225 + 20.9764
c^2 = 28.9989
Taking the square root of both sides, we find:
c ≈ √28.9989
c ≈ 5.39
So, the length between two points with coordinates (2, 5) and (7, 3) is approximately 5.39 (rounded to two decimal places).
Apply the Pythagorean cerium to find the length between two, five and seven, three round your answer to the nearest hundred and necessary 2.65 29 4.58 5.39
