If the length of the drawbridge, r, is 20 meters and the point p is 16 meters above the roadway , what is the distance d?

I'm assuming that the figure formed in this problem is a right angle. Thus, we need to use the Pythagorean theorem to get the distance or the hypotenuse.

Length = 20 meters
Height = 16 meters

a² + b² = c²

(20m)² + (16m)² = c²
400m² + 256m² = c²
656m² = c²
√656m² = √c²
25.61 m = c

The distance is 25.61 meters.

The point (5, 10) will work for the rule y=x+5.y= 10 x= 510=5+510=10therefore the ordered pair (5, 10) works for the rule
