A sports team is ordering a new banner to hang over the entrance of their stadium. The banner will be a right triangle where one leg is 33 feet and the other leg is 56 feet. All three edges of the banner will be lined with a ribbon that costs $0.50 per foot. How much will the ribbon cost?

The ribbon cost is $77

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to get the 3rd side of the triangle

This represents the hypotenuse since we have 2 legs, we need the side connecting the legs

To get this, we use Pythagoras’ theorem

This states that the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Let the hypotenuse be marked x

Thus;

x^2 = 56^2 + 33^2

x^2 = 3136 + 1089

x^2 = 4225

x = square root of 4225

x = 65 feet

So the length of all the sides will be;

56 + 33 + 65 = 154 feet

So the cost of the ribbon will be;

154 feet. * 0.5

= $77
