The library is located 1.8 miles west of callie’s house. the grocery store is located 2.4 miles south of the library. what is the length of a straight line between callie’s house and the grocery store?

Your answer would be 3 miles.

Explanation and work:

To find the answer for this question, we would use the numbers we know that was provided in the question and use it to get us the answer.

The equation we would use in this type of question is the Pythagorean Theorem.

Pythagorean Theorem:

a² + b² = c²

When you draw out the different locations, it would end up looking like a triangle since you trying to find the diagonal line from the grocery store to the house. In the triangle, it would be the hypotenuse. I will put a picture below.

Lets start solving:

1.8 would be plugged into "a"

2.4 will be plugged into "b"

(1.8)² + (2.4)² = c²

 ↓          ↓        ↓

3.24  + 5.76 =  c²

          ↓

          9  = c²

              ↓

      √9 = √c²

             ↓

         3  = c

3 miles would be your FINAL answer.

answer: it is d

step-by-step explanation:

when rotating a figure 180 degrees, imagine that you are able to take the figure and turn it clockwise or counterclockwise around a center point. to rotate a figure 180 degrees, you will need to apply the rule (x, y) → (-x, -y). start by using a coordinate grid with coordinates for each vertex of the figure. the center point of the coordinate grid is located at (0, 0), which is what you will rotate the figure around. write down the original coordinates of the shape you are going to rotate. then, apply the rule. for example, coordinate (1, 2) becomes (-1, -2). another example would be, coordinate (-4, -2) becoming (4, 2). after you change each original coordinate to the rotated coordinate, you will draw your new figure.
