You are told that in a billiards shot, the cue ball was shot at the eight ball, which was 8 inches away. as a result, the eight ball rolled into a pocket, which was 6 inches away.
knowing that the angle made with the path of the cue ball and the resulting path of the eight ball is larger than 90°, it can be determined that the original distance from the cue ball to the pocket was greater than inches
disclaimer:
i know the answer is 10 but i don't know why, i thought i did the math right but i got 100. i'll give brainliest if you explain it well!
