Question

Calculate Tre's Throw:
5. Using the distance formula, calculate how far Tre threw the ball. (4 points: 2 points for setup, 1 for calculation, 1 for the answer).

Answer 1

Answer:

D= 63.717

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute values for x's and y's

$\sqrt (42.78 - 0) ^{2} + (42.78 - 90)^{2}$

$\sqrt42.78^{2} + ( - 47.22) ^{2}$

$\sqrt1830.1284 \: + 2229.7284$

$\sqrt4059.8568$

$= 63.717$

So, the ball travelled a distance of 63.717 units
