I need to know how to solve this (Pythagorean theorem) and the answer

Answer:
≈ 106.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagorean Therorem: [tex]a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]
Equation: [tex]28^{2} + b^{2} = 110^{2}[/tex]
[tex]784 + b^{2} = 12100[/tex]
-784 -784
[tex]b^{2} = 11316[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{b^{2} } = \sqrt{11316}[/tex]
= 106.3766892
Round to nearest tenth:
≈ 106.4
Hope I helped :)
Answer:
114.4
Step-by-step explanation:
using pythagorean theorem can help you find more than just the hypotenuse.
you can solve for any variable... a, b, and c
pythagorean theorem is: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
plug in your variables. remember that c represents the hypotenuse, so it must go there.
28^2 + b^2 = 110^2
784 + b^2 = 12100
-784 -784
b^2 = 11316
now take the square root of both...
b = 106.376689
round to nearest tenth.
b = 106.4
*** dont forget about the extra 8 feet! ***
just add 8 to your solution
114.4
i hope this was helpful!
stay safe!
