How to calculate annual temperature

Calculate Mean Annual Temperature

Add the mean monthly temperatures for the months of the calendar year, January to December, together, and then divide by 12. This will be the mean annual temperature.

Explanation:

the answer would be the third option, "no, ariel should have added 9^2 and 12^2 and compared that to 15^2."

this is found through the pythagorean theorem, which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

this is the correct way of solving the problem:

9^2 + 12^2 = 15^2

81 + 144 = 225

225 = 225
